Thanks again for the quick reply, Lamarque. Basically, I'm trying to get round the problem you highlighted here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=295468.
Since there's no way of doing it through nm-applet or the plasmoid, I'm trying to edit the connection file manually, then start it through nmcli. For the user to update the file in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/, I have to chmod it. That works, but nmcli doesn't pickup the changes when it dsplays the connection dialog. After a network-manager restart, the connection disappears. It seems this happens when the file permissions change. Is there a better method of changing the 'Xauth username' through a script?
