--- Begin Message ---Package: knemo Version: 0.4.6-2+b1 Severity: minor knemo's two backends both use iwlib methods for determining if an encryption key is being used for the current wireless link or not. Nettools uses it indirectly by parsing iwconfig output and matching a regexp, while the Sys backend basically borrows code from iwconfig.c of wireless-tools. The iwlib method (from iwconfig.c) used to determine if an encryption key is set on an iface is: iw_get_ext(skfd, ifname, SIOCGIWENCODE, &wrq) When run by an unprivileged user that will return -EPERM, and thus knemo's Sys backend will fail to know that a key is in use, or iwconfig simply will not display an "Encryption key:" field for the Nettools backend to match. iwlist run as user is another good example of a user attempting to access encryption key information, it uses the same method to access enc. key information: $ iwlist ath0 encryption ath0 3 key sizes : 40, 104, 128bits 4 keys available : Error reading wireless keys (SIOCGIWENCODE): Operation not permitted As far as I can see, using the above the encryption status of knemo can never be useful when knemo is run as regular user, it will always say encryption is not in use. For nettools backend, it could parse iwlist scan iformation for the current ssid and match the "Encryption key:" field, but to do the same with system calls strikes me as overly complex. Thanks, Kel.
