Comment 40 for bug 41134

All the information elements for the wpa enterprise connection are being stored in the gconf file under /system/networking/wireless. The only bit of information not stored there (as it should be) is the passkey to the private certificate.

The passkey is being stored on the default keyring but for some reason, this key is not being retrieved and passed on to networkmanager or to the wpa suupplicant. Without this key, the supplicant cannot open the private key store and the connection fails.

I also have to say that for networks that use WPA PSK, this is not the case and those networks work very well with nm-applet In WPA PSK networks, the PSK is stored in the keyring and it is encrypted. When connecting to those networks, nm-applet is able to retrieve the key and pass it to the supplicant without any problems.

Thank you.
