    where are network-manager's config files?

    I fubared cloning my karmic partition and ended up just doing a clean install of lucid. I've got /home on a separate partition, so all my config files were generated by the lucid version of programs, I figured I would just delete the config folder if any of my programs started messing up.

    I'm getting odd problems with my wifi connection, and several other devices connect to and use the wifi no problems, so I figure network-manager was updated in some way that reads the config files differently.

    However, I can't find em, anyone know where they are? I found another thread that said that config could be accessed from gconf and gnome keyring, but is deleting those going to cause problems?

    Thanks but I know that the files have to be in /home, because it remembers my network ssid and password. This may just be a bug with network-manager in general with my hardware, but I'm trying to purge the old config files before I go with that diagnosis.

    The user settings will be stored here.

    Code:
    /home/userdirectory/.gconf/system/networking/connections

    The System settings will be stored here.


    Code:
