kde networkmanager
« on: 2015/03/29, 16:10:07 »
Hi all,
a quite simple question - where does the kde networkmanager store the connection profile information? I would like to delete some profiles, I looked at right mouse menu as well as to the .kde folder. Nothing related...

You may have a look at /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections

Hello badkey,
members of the netdev group can use the nmcli command.
user@sidbox:~$ nmcli connection show
NAME         UUID                                  TYPE             DEVICE
WLAN-Home    35ccfe07-f75e-467a-89e1-ac3d6ebe5e07  802-11-wireless  wlan0
LAN          131326a9-556c-40a2-a08d-3d552a2e7535  802-3-ethernet   eth0

user@sidbox:~$ nmcli con del WLAN-Home
user@sidbox:~$ nmcli c s
NAME  UUID                                  TYPE            DEVICE
LAN   131326a9-556c-40a2-a08d-3d552a2e7535  802-3-ethernet  eth0

In the second and third command i used short abbreviations of "connection delete" and "connection show",
but bash-completion knows about nmcli, so the long names are no hazzle.

ANother question from me:
The old networkmanager ould save the passwords without using KDE-Wallet. I prefered this, since when I start my laptop I am always asked to open my wallet, and to keep it open, which I don't like!

Also Dropbox starts in standby when the internetconection is not established since the first seconds.

so my question: How do I start my kdenetworkmanager without KDE Wallet?

setting a blank master password for the wallet manager

If that don't work try  (back it up first)

Delete this folder

Code: [Select]
.kde4/share/apps/kwallet/
This file

Code: [Select]
.kde4/share/config/kwalletrc

I always do not choose to use kwallet in the second step of the kwallet dialog, which opens when storing the password the first time. Insteed I just tell it to go on (don't know exactly what the choices are any more). After that kwallet is not used and I have to give  the password one more time in the settings of my networkmanger/wireless device. I also have to choose "all users may connect to this network". Then networkmanager starts without asking for a password any more.
