[Bug 1270791] Re: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot
Hello,
I had the same issue, it went away after I moved my certificates from inside my
home directory into a self created subpath of root:
Certificate storage path with error appearing:
/home/myuser/.cert/{certificate files}
Certificate storage path now, with error disappeared:
/somefolder/{certificate files}
Hopefully this helps-
Best regards
Kitsab

[Bug 1270791] Re: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot
Can confirm that #7 works on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit which is also affected by this bug. However, obviously this is pretty weak, since in many cases, the PEAP password is your AD/LDAP credential, so when you store it in the /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections file that represents your SSID, you're giving your password to anyone with root access on the laptop. Full disk encryption helps with general security outwith the home folder here, but it doesn't stop anyone with root displaying that file and learning your password. I'd also note that I need to have connected to my SSID before entering my lightDM password because otherwise pam_mount will fail to map any of my drives (and will fail silently thereafter too) if I don't. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270791 Title: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1270791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same issue, but using Xfce4. Another workaround is to manually edit /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eduroam (or whichever SSID is affected in your case) and to replace password- flags=1 with password=MYPASSWORD, this allows automatic connection for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270791 Title: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1270791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1270791] Re: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot
It is fairly annoying. In reference to #4, a WORKAROUND is once logged in to connect to your WiFi connection (i.e. eduroam). Then click on the network icon in the top panel, select Edit Connections and change settings for your connection (i.e. eduroam). Go to the General tab, and uncheck All users may connect to this network. It will prevent Ubuntu from trying to connect to it while in the Login window. I hope this helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270791 Title: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1270791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1270791] Re: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot
My problem is identical to comment #4, also involving eduroam. First I thought it failed due to permissions on a specific CA-certificate provided by the university or it residing in an inaccessible directory prior to login. However, making the certificate readable by everyone and placing it on the root '/' rather than in my home directory did not resolve the issue. Also, the wifi login information is accepted at the unity-greeter stage and a connection is estabilshed successfully (indicating that the certificate is being used), only to be forgotten at the next system login. Once logged in as user in the Unity shell, the connection is again established with the password etc. remembered (by the Unity shell). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270791 Title: Enterprise wifi password is unnecessarily asked on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1270791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
