Description Bernard Johnson 2006-02-16 09:03:58 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060210 Fedora/1.5.0.1-3 Firefox/1.5.0.1

Description of problem:
When attempting to a wep protected wireless network, the NM authentication dialog is presented for entry of the hex wep keys / ascii wep keys / wep passphrase.  When you select hex wep keys, the entry field for the key will accept non-hex values.

I can see this being a reasonable behavior if switching between hex/ascii/passphrase saved the value in the field, but this is not the case.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.5.1-12.cvs20060213

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to connect to wep network using NM
2. Wait for authentication dialog, choose hex wep key
3. Enter non-hex values
  

Actual Results:  Non-hex values were accepted as valid input for a hex only field.

Expected Results:  Field should have been filtered to 0-F.
