Unfortunately I've drawn a blank. NM is talking to WPA_S over DBUS so
there's no conf file on the disk to post and nothing in the process cmdline
entry.

I have had bad experiences with NM in the past and am not a fan as it

It's taking all the restraint I can muster from suggesting that you try
Ubuntu..

Seriously though, NM in Ubuntu from 7.04 has been absolutely solid for me,
'it just works'. I use it on a daily basis, roaming between networks and
it's never missed a beat yet.

Sorry I can't help more..
