@Blaster (holst-neils) #131

My patch has nothing to do with DOMAIN logins. In fact, it has nothing to do with anything other that precisely "sys-ca-cert".
It is, however, outdated (I don't use Ubuntu myself). I haven't updated it since I posted it, and it is possible that a newer edition of NM itself might have caused the DOMAIN issue you speak of.

Also, it IS a bug in NetworkManager itself. sys-ca-certs should never even exist. That is not how 802.1x is done. It is not a replica of the https model. Refer: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702608#c17

My patch doesn't touch NM simply because NM is larger than nm-applet. I only added the gui option of sys-ca-certs because it was easier.
