You can be more secure if the passphrase is kept protected on your system and is hard to enter, than have one that is 'easy'to remember and enter. > When I go home and turn the wireless on, I can search my logs to see if > it's storing that anywhere and get back to you. What is NetworkManager using for its 802.1X supplicant code? I think I can see that it cannot be teh wpa_supplicant. It only supports the ipw2200, I have figured out. Not the ipw3945. So I will uninstall that. The xsupplicant rpm? or something internal? BTW, I turned on an AP with no security, and connected right to it with NetworkManager. This really tends to narrow my problem to WPA support.
