That's an auto-created, in-memory profile with the default settings in case you don't have a matching connection file. As long as you don't change any of the defaults, no physical file is created on disk. We could argue, that changing the default for ip6-privacy is probably sensible nowadays, I'm just a bit worried to do this that late in the jessie release cycle, since there might be side effects. Dan, what are your thoughts on this? Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
