nm-applet as normal user + debian + fluxbox + slim



Hi,

I have an issue with nm-applet, I am not able to enable/setup network (openvpn), due to that, the user has no rights to modify/enable configs.

I have to sudo root to setup the network (mobile broadband, vpn).

I found a lot of stuff on the internet, it seems a common issue when one use Slim and other WM than gnome.

I already solved the keyring read, but I am not able to step further to solve this issue. I tried several tricks, spent hours/days to read and try to fix it, but all of them are failed, no solution.

Due to that, I need automatic things with normal user, my goal is to to use and control all the network settings with this user, instead of sudo. Anyway, root has no keyring, so, I am not able to store password, it is not possible to start openvpn in this case.

I keep the right to be a complete idiot, so, it is possible, I am the problem, but I would appreciate if you could send me hints or links if you know the "solution", where I can find solution for this.

Thank you in advance!

István
