Hi All, thanks for any tips or directory pathname where these config files are stored.
Also, I read a web page: http://news.softpedia.com/news/All-Linux-Distributions-Store-Wi-Fi-Passwords...
That the wifi passwords are not stored by NM in encrypted form.
Thanx,
Luke

They are stored in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts

I use KDE. So, my passwords for wifi are stored in encrypted format in the my "KDE wallet".

Oh, and I believe GNOME keeps the passwords in the "GNOME keyring".

Thank you. Is there a way for the user/owner to actually look at those keys without having to bring up the network? If the keys in in the gnome keyring, I suppose it is in some file in my home dir. How do I "view" (i.e. decrypt and view) the contents of that file?
Thanx a lot.

I've not had the need to look directly into the file maintained by either gnome key ring or kde's wallet. So, I don't know the answer to your question.
