anyone in the 'netdev' group to access and configure the daemon, but
this doesn't work. I could use some help debugging this.
This all works now, without running the clients as root! :)
I'm not sure which change in my configuration made things start
working.
* I added my user to the 'netdev' group in my os-configuration for the
first time, whereas earlier I simply edited /etc/group by hand and
rebooted.
* I just added Ludovic's new suggested 'name-service-switch'
configuration with nss-mdns support.
* I'm now running on current 'master', and there have been some changes
there since my earlier testing.
I was pleased to discover that our xfce already includes a panel
applet
to configure wicd
And this is working as well, although it seems unable to find some of
the icons. Anyway, it's a step in the right direction :)
Enjoy!
