Hi all,
There seem to be some changes between 0.7.0 and 0.8 with respect to
using PolicyKit to get rights to add and modify system level
connections. With 0.7.0 I can run the command :
dbus-send --session --print-reply
--dest=org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.AuthenticationAgent / \
org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.AuthenticationAgent.ObtainAuthorization \
string:org.freedesktop.network-manager-settings.system.modify uint32:0
uint32:$PPID
and I am prompted to select a user with root permissions, and enter
their password. However, if I do the same thing on 0.8 the command just
returns false without ever prompting.
Has something changed that prevents a program other than nm-applet from
adding/updating settings? Or has there been some other subtle change
that I am missing.
I have Googled this thing to death, and am just not getting anywhere.
So any help would be appreciated!
