Well, it's actually SID, and when it was squeeze I didn't have
multiple users configured, so I can't be certain about that. I don't
think it's a bug, because I'm fairly certain there's been some nm-dev
discussions about how to implement this. Which is why I am surprised
to hear that this is how it currently works for you on Lenny.
So, just to be clear, if you log in to your gnome desktop as user 1,
then switch users, not logging out the first one, user2 has the
nm-applet in their panel and can change networks, and when you switch
back to user 1, they still have the applet and are now connected to
the new network?
