I presume that would be a system connection? I also use only NetworkManager, as you can see below. # chkconfig --list |grep -i network NetworkManager 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off network 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off But still the directory you mention above is empty for me. Does it mean this is relevant only for connections which require authentication? Actually I had a similar problem as the OP. I couldn't connect until I logged in and asked nm-applet to connect. And I couldn't edit the connections as they were greyed out. I resolved my issue by editing the files as I mentioned in my first post. Sorry if my questions are going OT, just trying to understand how NetworkManager works. Thanks for the responses. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
