[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#719861: network-manager-gnome: Doesn't connect to WPA2 enterprise network, automatically and asks for username/password

[Michal Kašpar]

Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.9.8.2-1+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
I've got WPA2 Enterprise network with username/password saved in
nm-applet, but every time I want to connect the network, authentication
dialogue pops up with username/password prefilled and I have to confirm
it to connect the network.
This is particularly inconvenient in connection to bug #651358 because I
usually need to reconnect after resume and if I don't authenticate with
gnome-screensaver quickly enough, I don't get authentication dialogue at
all and have to turn off/on whole wifi from Netwok Settings as the
applet shows Authenticating... instead of on/off button (IMO quite a
usability bug itself).
The connection is set to only one particular user ('All users may connect
to this network' unchecked) but 'Automatically connect to this network
when it is available' is checked (but the connection entry in
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections is named SSID instead of 'Auto
SSID') and NM tries to connect the network when available.
For WEP, WPA Personal networks, automatical connection works fine. I see
this problem only with WPA2 Enterprise network and as I don't have any
other RADIUS authenticated network at hand, I can't test it with any
other similar network.
