*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 964705 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/964705 I don't believe this is a bug of #964705 since that contains alot of other issues aswell, that hasn't been decided whether to fix or not (for Ubuntu, all other projects seems to agree it is a bug). They have the same root cause, but this issue I think has less controversy as to what the expected behavior is, and shouldn't be left hanging waiting on some form of agreement in #964705 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager-applet in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1077982 Title: A Guest cannot connect easily to a new Wifi network without admin password Status in OEM Priority Project: Invalid Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When a guest is using its guest session and wants to join a new Wifi network, the administrative rights GUI is shown and the guest just cancel. this is because (I guess) by default a new network should be available to all users and thus stored in a way that needs admin rights.
