The file names aren't important, but the the configuration files built by the keyfile plugin use connection names for file names. Since these files might contain passwords, they have to be owned by root and have 0600 permissions. Attached are two example files, one for ethernet, one for wireless with WPA-PSK security. It should be possible to create/modify/delete keyfile plugin files using the latest SVN nm-applet: when you open a connection properties page in connection-editor, there's a new checkbox "System setttings". Checking it will push it to the system settings daemon. The version in SVN is not doing any authentication so everyone can do it, but I have patches to add PolicyKit support for it. Tambet
