Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8.1-2+b1
Severity: normal
I wanderred though n-m documentation and noticed that there is a
system-level way to configure network connections, in order to avoid
doing it for each and every user of the machine.
I suspect this should go in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections,
but how?
README says:
"the system settings service stores it's config in distro-specific
formats, or in a distro- agnostic format, depending on
user/administrator preference."
But what is this format? An example in /usr/share/doc/n-m/examples
would probably be enough...
