Here's how I fixed this: Make a group which will contain all the users who will log in remotely. groupadd netdev Then add yourself to that group: usermod -a -G netdev Then edit /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-applet.conf copy the entire section labeled policy user="root" and call it policy group="netdev" Then, restart messagebus: /etc/init.d/messagebus restart That should do it. -- This is an email sent via The Fedora Community Portal https://fcp.surfsite.org https://fcp.surfsite.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=207657&topic_id=34861&forum=30#forumpost207657 If you think, this is spam, please report this to webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and/or blame spam102@xxxxxxxxxx
