    Annoying password when trying to connect to the Internet

    I have one external modem (Intex) to connect to the internet in my laptop. I have Ubuntu 12.04


    Screenshot from 2012-08-30 08:09:39.png


    Every-time that I try to connect it asks for my administrative password 3 times! And again when I disconnect!

    Screenshot from 2012-08-30 08:11:18.png

    Please can someone help me my fingers are becoming tired

    Re: Annoying password when trying to connect to the Internet

    Hi ,
    what is this application that asks for your password ? Is not the NetworkManager as I can see.
    "kilall pppd" ?

    Did you set-up anything about ?

    Post the result of
    Code:
    cat /etc/network/interfaces
    cat /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
    cat /etc/resolv.conf
    Thanks

    Re: Annoying password when trying to connect to the Internet

    Hi ,
    do you have any script or something that kills automatically this daemon ? pppd = Point-to-Point protocol daemon.

    Give the results of
    Code:
    cat /etc/rc.local 
    ls /etc/modprobe.d/ 
    cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    Did you manually set the nameservers in resolv.conf ? Cuz the default value is the local nameserver 127.0.01

    Thanks

    Dear NikTh,
    You asked me: do you have any script or something that kills automatically this daemon ? pppd = Point-to-Point protocol daemon.
    Answer: No, I do not even know what it is.

    Here goes the result of the commands:

    Code:
    yajnamurti@yajnamurti-laptop:~$ cat /etc/rc.local 
    #!/bin/sh -e
    #
    # rc.local
    #
    # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
    # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
    # value on error.
    #
    # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
    # bits.
    #
    # By default this script does nothing.
    
    exit 0

    Answer: I did not set manually nameservers in resolv.conf


    Thank you a lot for your help.

    Re: Annoying password when trying to connect to the Internet

    Ok ,
    lets try something.

    Code:
    gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf
    comment out the 2 lines (with # symbol)
    Code:
    nameserver 220.226.6.104 
    nameserver 220.226.100.40
    and add one line
    Code:
    nameserver 127.0.1.1
    the final result must be
    Code:
    # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) 
    #     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN 
    #nameserver 220.226.6.104 
    #nameserver 220.226.100.40
    nameserver 127.0.1.1
    save the file and reboot your pc.

    If you have troubles to connect the internet , then you must Uncomment the 2 lines previously commented out and remove the line we added.
    Thanks

    Ok ,
    give again the result of
    Code:
    cat /etc/resolv.conf
    and also try to edit your connection ..

    Code:
    nm-connection-editor
    select your connection and click edit , make sure that "Available to all users" is ticked. (locate it down)



    Another solution might be here : http://askubuntu.com/questions/68292...eyring-manager
    Take a look.

    Thanks
