It is showing the encrypted hash value unless I miss my guess, it gets stored this way in the keyring manager. Don't replace it just hit connect. I am seeing similar behavior on F8 with the latest kernel. Its slightly finicky but it generally connects without much prodding on my part. It hasn't ever dropped on me once it connected though.... -Max -- If opinions were really like assholes we'd each have just one -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
