Hello!
I'm administering a wireless network with more than 200 notebooks
running network-manager (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS).
Many users are creating ad-hoc networks. This is a problem because
originates WiFi noise and can be also a security problem.
Is there any way to block ad-hoc network creation with network-manager
configuration?
I looked at /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf and search
information about it at the Internet. I can't find information about.
I tried some changes like:
[802-11-wireless]
mode=infraestructure
And I restarted the service:
/etc/init.d/network-manager restart
but no results.
I looked also NetworkManager.conf and nm-applet.conf at
/etc/dbus-1/system.d but I don't understand how they work.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Josep Pujadas-Jubany
