Start with a working (cleartext or DES-3) private key/cert for a network. Set up a connection and verify that everything works. 2. Re-encrypt the key with AES-256 with this command: "openssl rsa -in working-key.pem -out aes-key.pem -aes256" (the output should have a line starting with "DEK-Info: AES-256-CBC,") 3. Delete the settings for the test network and attempt to reconnect using the new key. That should work * Regression potential That's new code for an extra type of keys, it shouldn't impact existing options -------------- NetworkManager does not appear to support private keys encrypted with AES. At the very least, it will not validate such a key in nm-util when setting up a WPA 802.1x TLS wifi connection.
