Description Pavel Polischouk 2006-10-30 21:06:29 UTC
Description of problem:
EAP-TTLS supports various secondary auth schemes. In NM, once TTLS is selected,
there's no choice of secondary auth method (PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP, etc.) and its
parameters. The same screen is re-used for TLS and TTLS, instead of letting the
user to completely specify the parameters of tunneled auth method.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):  0.6.4-5.fc6


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Click on NM applet
2. Add network
3. Enter ESSID, select WPA ENTERPRISE
4. Select TTLS

  
Actual results:
No choice for secondary auth method. Presents both TLS and TTLS parameters (auth
private key for TLS AND login/password for TTLS) on the same screen.

Expected results:
Should present TTLS-specific parameters including the choice of secondary
authentication method and its parameters (scheme-specific). The config screen
should also be cleaned up to disable the entry of unrelated (TLS) parameters.
