Also, re-reading this revealed the bug has slightly changed: Note this time around, the password seems to re-appear in the GUI after being entered - however, it's not stored in the conf file, and I'm promoted to enter it upon reboot, so it's now:
- storing it somewhere (maybe somewhere preferrable to a globally readable file!) - and then not using it upon reboot. After entering it in the conf file, it started working again, upon reboot. Note that this version has been updated to: root@stuart:/etc/pam.d# apt list network-manager Listing... Done network-manager/xenial-updates,now 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 amd64 [installed,automatic] So it's getting better, but not there yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643737 Title: Network Manager doesn't use 802.1x password entered in GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1643737/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
