My credientials are for the university infra-structure and instead of using the normal login: XX I've used: xxx...@domain.tld And somehow it went through smoothly. Thanks!

Here's another symptom (I think): * Establish the connection and select the certificate. * Right-click and select Edit Connections * Select the Wireless tab, the connection, and the Wireless Security tab. * Note that the CA Certificate field says (None). * Select the certificate. * Click Apply. * Close the connection editor. * Open the connection editor and the current connection security tab. * Note that the CA Certificate field says (None). The rest of the connection info is: * WPA2 Enterprise * PEAP * No anonymous identity * PEAP version 0 (or automatic) * Inner authentication MSCHAPv2 * Username and password fields filled in -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

NM 0.8 can't connect to PEAP
I installed NetworkManager-1:0.8.0-4.git20100325.fc12.x86_64 from Fedora 12 updates-testing. After that, I was unable to connect to my PEAP-based wireless network at work. The new security screen has a checkbox for always prompt for user password, which was not in 0.7.

Also, a problem I have mentioned before where the connection fails to remember the location of its cert file across reboots persists in NM-0.8. Downgrading to NetworkManager-0.7.998-2.git20100106.fc12.x86_64 fixes the connection problem (but not the cert problem). -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
