I also make use of the ipw3945 driver.
eth1 is the assigned wireless interface.
These are the versions of NetworkManager that come with RHEL5.3 32bit:
NetworkManager-0.7.0-3.el5
NetworkManager-gnome-0.7.0-3.el5
NetworkManager-glib-devel-0.7.0-3.el5
NetworkManager-devel-0.7.0-3.el5
NetworkManager-glib-0.7.0-3.el5
I am not able to connect to my access point. The Network Manager icon
in gnome will appear, show the connection anamation, then when I enter
my passphrase, it will connect, then the entire anamation / icon in
the information panel will disappear.
What configuration is your AP, and what security option is selected in
the dialog where you enter your passphrase? Sounds like the applet is
crashing; would be good to figure out why its doing that.

This is what tail -f /var/log/messages gives me, during the sequence:

When that WARN statement appears, the icon immediately disappears. I
have never seen this error before. It is very strange.
I have tried reinstalling all of the rpms, but it makes no difference.
I am open to any suggestions at this point. Please let me know if any
other information is needed, I will do my best to provide it.
