This is a not a problem of knetworkmanager only; it happens just the same in Gnome network manager.
I'm beginning to think that it is very intentional that the proxy settings are indeed a per-user feature, so that different users in the same computer can be individually allowed to access the web differently. Again, single-users, which probably represent over 95% of Ubuntu installations have to pay in complexity for the few multiuser installations (as in all that convoluted session management). Multiuser systems being the vast minority, and usually relying on some trained management, Ubuntu should default to easy use for single-users, while being able to be configured for multi. To be practical, Network-manager should have the ability of saving different configurations depending on location, which is still missing. That way we could set fixed-ip and per-person proxy in the office, dhcp and global-proxy in customer-A, dhcp and no proxy at home. -- knetworkmanager should manage proxy settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295571 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to knetworkmanager in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
