Filed a bug in Gnome's bugtracker in case anybody else runs across this thread with the same issue: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=565065

Thanks,

Hi,

I am trying to use Fedora 10/Intel 5300 on a Cisco based wireless network, which uses GTC for the inner authentication. I see this option no longer exists in the version of NM that I have: NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.12.svn4326.fc10.x86_64.

Out of curiosity, I used GIT to get the latest source, and see the following in libnm-util/nm-setting-8021x.c:

 950         { "gtc", NULL, NULL },  // FIXME: implement

So, it appears GTC is not implemented in NM, even though wpa_supplicant supports it. Are there any patches available that allow this to work? This seems to be a regression from version 0.6.x (I don't know the exact version I was using before).

I've seen various bugs filed at the distribution level regarding this, but I didn't see one with this specific problem in the Gnome bugtracker. However, seeing the comment in the source, it seems to be a known-issue. Is this actually the case, and will this actually be implimented? Do I need to actually file a bug? Are there any known workarounds?

Respectfully,
David
