Okay. I'll rework it to avoid losing the saved password. It will, however, not try connecting again until asked to do so. (The difficulty is caused by overloading ... the saved password is preserved in the list of connections held in in connections.cfg ... and this is *currently* the same as the list of connections provided to Network Manager via the D-Bus service method ListConnections ... what seems to be required is to filter that list so that only connections with autoconnect are provided. Otherwise, Network Manager does attempt a connection even if autoconnect is not set. There's nothing in the D-Bus API for Network Manager to explain why.) -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
