[22:25] They don't, but to not do so you need to configure the network, rather than relying on Network Manager [22:25] unlock login keyring [22:25] the login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer [22:26] and to configure the network not relying on network manager, guessing there is not a nice gui for that [22:26] There's gnome-network-properties, but it doesn't get as much care, no. [22:27] Right. The package is called gnome-network-admin. [22:30] installing that, see where it takes me :D [22:35] If it doesn't quite do what you want, editing /etc/network/interfaces is likely to do the right thing. [22:35] yeah [22:45] sigh. i think login keyring has it wrong [22:45] if the user is auto logged in, should inherit its privs, and keyring acess [22:46] No, it intentionally doesn't. [22:46] as asking for a pw after defeating a login pw request makes no sense [22:46] The idea being that autologin shouldn't automatically unencrypt your secrets. [22:46] so intensionally allows them to login un challenged, but block them for touch ing teh net? [22:46] No. Network access works *unless* there is a password. [22:47] is it possible to uninstall this keyring, so all apps can go back to the pre-keyring behavior? [22:47] pre-keyring is ~ 2007 [22:47] i am ok with that [22:47] Sure, but Ubuntu wasn't compiling ARM back then. [22:47] indeed [22:47] I suppose you could take the source of an old release, port to ARM, etc. ... [22:48] what a PITA if you want to have a wireless networked system with the option to plug in a head [22:49] i think there is a usability issue here that has not been addressed, or i am the only crazy person who wants their computer to connect to wifi before they login [22:49] No, lots of folks want that: the common use case is $HOME-on-nfs [22:49] that cant be. i MUST have configured something wrong this install, as i THOUGHT it was auto logging in and connecting to teh network at one time [22:50] shouldnt the wifi WPA2 setup be somewhat easier to find/enable then? [22:51] Yeah, well. Talk to the GNOME folk who decided this was the right model. [22:53] But keep in mind the counter-argument: just because someone happens to pick up your laptop, you don't want them to have all your passwords. [22:55] or the argument that wifi password does not belong on the keyring [22:55] i am suddenly wishing for a debian dist [22:57] perhaps this is the answer i seek [22:57] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 [22:58] MrCurious: it's possible to have a system-wide setting in NetworkManager. It's ini-format files in /etc/NetworkManager/. Not sure if that still works with NetworkManager 0.9 but it definitely worked with 0.8 (used for a few customers who needed network for login) [23:00] Debian's Network Manager behaves the same. [23:01] stgraber, Does that correspond with "make available to all users"? [23:01] persia: I think so. IIRC that feature would convert your network definition from gconf+gnome-keyring into the .conf file in /etc/NetworkManager [23:02] That feature is still present in 0.9, although I'm not sure of the mechanism. === TheUni_ is now known as TheUni
