Another way to do it is to choose the "traditional method with ifup" option in Yast's network device configuration module, instead of using knetworkmanager. Then you can set the password right there in Yast and it will remember it. If you need to store more than one configuration for different sites (say, your house and a coffee shop) you can set up multiple profiles with SCPM. This has worked quite well for me, and I travel around to a lot of different sites with different networks. I usually keep one profile for each network I frequent and one generic "hotspot" one (DHCP, no encryption) for coffee shops and the like. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
