Re: Show Hidden network from connection file

2011-12-02 Thread marcos m.
Anyone?
Is not possible to at least show in the apllet an ad-hoc connection crated
form a connection file?
Is there a security policy to prevent autoconnecting to wireless ad-hoc?
If so, can anyone tell me where to edit this beahiviour from source?
I appoligise for beeing so insistent but I relly need this.
Thanks!

There is a reasonably good example of adding a connection in the test 
sub-directory of the source.

Adjust as required.

If the wifi interface is connected using an adhoc connection, then it
should show that in the applet just like it shows connections to a real
AP.

 Is there a security policy to prevent autoconnecting to wireless
 ad-hoc?

By default all users can create Ad-Hoc networks through the UI, but
using PolicyKit an admin is able to restrict this.

 If so, can anyone tell me where to edit this beahiviour from source?

Plain wifi ad-hoc connections are autoconnected if the adhoc network
already exists in the scan results, but they are not automatically
created (ie, this  machine is the first one to join the adhoc network,
ie it doesn't exist yet in scan results).

2011-11-16 Thread marcos m.
Thankyou for your reply.
Do you know if there is any way to autoconnect to an ad-hoc wifi network
even if it was never used before? I'm trying to set up a connection file to
requiere the less user intervention.

ps: sorry for my english...

  Thanks, Marcos.

 Timestamp doesn't affect connection visibility, it only shows if/when the
 connection was used last.

 You don't see it in nm-applet, because the items nm-applet shows are
 visible
 SSIDs. As your network is hidden, it won't be shown until you connect.

 You should see the configured connection profile in nm-connection-editor,
 though. Last Used column represent timestamp.
