Hi Christophe

I do it like this, because I run SliTaz only frugal - like this I dont need to run tazusb evry time I want to add a new network:

..desktop files in  /home/tux/.local/share/applications

the configs in /home/tux/.net

those I need most - this is just 2 - I have in wbar

I dont care to enter the root password, but it could also be done with sudo ......

for example my desktopentry for the train is: OEBB.desktop

Hi all,

I'm actually focusing on the desktop and SliTaz home made tools
including Wifi configuration. At work I have a new wifi network and to
use it I must connect with a user name and a password.

Wpa_supplicant can handle this kind of config but our network.conf and
our /etc/init.d/network.sh script dont handle it. So I will improve
that. My first idea is to add WIFI_IDENTITY and WIFI_PASSWORD variables
to network.conf. That's fine for a single connection.

The question is: how to store wifi configs ? I mean I just want to do
1-2 click to change between my home and my work settings (i guess
users want it also). Where should we store wifi configs ? /etc/wifi ?

If I have time I will improve wifi-box to handle stored wifi configs
but it wouls be nice if someone update TazPanel.

Suggestions, comments ?
