Description Justin Haygood 2006-09-13 16:21:14 UTC

NetworkManager cannot connect to a WPA Enterprise (EAP-TTLS) connection. However, using YaST to configure it using the traditional method works.

Hardware: Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop (Intel PRO/Wireless 3945 ABG card)

NetworkManager connects, successfully authenticates, then drops the connection due  to a timeout.

Traditional method connects, successfully authenticates, and pulls an IP address.

If any additional information is needed, please let me know. I'll be glad to send any relevant logs, etc..

Please attach  /var/log/NetworkManager after having attempted the operation.

I actually figured out the problem: The NetworkManager in SUSE Linux 10.1 doesn't support stage 2 PAP authentication yet according to: 

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2006-April/msg00071.html

YaST does support it however, which lets me gte on my university network. Any chance that OpenSUSE 10.2 will support it? Gets annoying switching back and forth between NetworkManager (work and home) and YaST Traditional Method (school)

Comment 3 JP Rosevear 2007-02-07 15:29:51 UTC

In progress upstream for 10.3

Comment 4 JP Rosevear 2007-04-16 13:21:19 UTC

Should be supported in the unreleased 0.6.5 from upstream.
