[solved] eduroam with netctl?

Hello, i'm trying to install arch on my school laptop. (I installed linux (not arch) before: it ain't a problem.)
Here they use a network called Airborne. It has wpa2-enterprise security.
(Here is a picture of the network configration in windows)
To install netctl I just placed the netctl and openresolv packages in my windows partition and installed them with pacman -U during installation.
My question is: how can I connect to wpa2-enterprise with netctl?

I found setting it up with wpa_supplicant too complicated.
I used archiso on my other pc to make an iso including wicd and this config: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wi … _with_wicd
Thanks for the help anyway!
EDIT: It looks like somebody made it work with netctl: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Netctl#Eduroam
I haven't tried it though.

  • [SOLVED] Problem with netctl and dhcpcd

    Hi everybody,
    I had a problem with netctl and dhcpcd.
    I was using netctl and wifi-menu to connect to wirelless networks with dhcp.
    It worked fine at home, then i went to a friend where it also worked but then i went back home and it failed at every try with those error messages:
    dhcpcd[2718]: version 6.0.5 starting
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: rebinding lease of 192.168.1.154
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: reject NAK via 192.168.178.1
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: soliciting a DHCP lease
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: offered 192.168.178.44 from 192.168.178.1
    dhcpcd[2718]: timed out
    network[2659]: DHCP IP lease attempt failed on interface 'wlp9s0'
    systemd[1]: netctl@wlp9s0\xxx.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
    systemd[1]: Failed to start Automatically generated profile by wifi-menu.
    systemd[1]: Unit [email protected] entered failed state.
    I figured that dhcpcd tried to rebind an ip that my router rejected and didn't accept the ip that it offered instead.
    The solution was to delete:
    /var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-wlp9s0.lease
    now how can i configure netctl and or dhcpcd so that won't happen again and that it accepts all ips offered by routers?

    I've had this happen now and again. You can rebind the lease yourself with:
    $ dhcpcd --rebind
    You could also try increasing the timeout by adding
    TimeoutDHCP=
    to your netctl profile/s - see netctl.profile(5) as WonderWoofy suggests. Although I haven't tried the latter.

  • No internet with netctl-ifpluged albeit internet is connected

    I bought an  external usb ethernet adaptor for my Dell XPS13
    It is recognized by the system and I can manually get it up with ip link:
    λ ip link
    1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    2: wlp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 7c:7a:91:27:73:ba brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    3: enp0s20u2u1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:23:55:8c:31:60 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    At this point I don't have an IP for the interface. Since I want to use it with netctl-ifpluged I copied the example netctl config file and changed the interface name:
    λ cat /etc/netctl/enp0s20u2u1-dhcp
    Description='A basic dhcp ethernet connection'
    Interface=enp0s20u2u1
    Connection=ethernet
    IP=dhcp
    I than modified ipfluged.conf to handle the interface:
    λ cat /etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.conf
    # Specify the interfaces to control here, separated by spaces.
    # Ifplugd processes will be started for each of these interfaces when
    # the ifplugd init script is called with the "start" argument. You may
    # use the magic string "auto" to make the init script start or stop
    # ifplugd processes for ALL eth and wlan interfaces that are available
    # according to /proc/net/dev. Note that the list of interfaces
    # appearing in /proc/net/dev may depend on which kernel modules you
    # have loaded.
    INTERFACES="enp0s20u2u1"
    # Additional parameters for ifplugd.
    # (Run "ifplugd -h" for further information.)

    for some reason netctl-ifpluged starts a second dhcpd process 5 seconds after the first one and from this point I can not ping any external IP anymore. The Wifi interface on the other hand is going up and down all the time.

    Not sure but shouldn't things normally NOT fork to the background if handled by systemd? I'm not sure since I don't use dhcpcd any longer (since it started to cause problems).
    Have you tried dhclient in place of dhcpcd? I used the latter for ages but switched to dhclient a little bit ago when it started seeming to cause problems. I realise this isn't really an answer...
    Do make sure that you have disabled all conflicting network services - whether systemd services or netctl profiles or whatever.

  • [solved] put enabled netctl-profiles on boot to background

    Hi,
    I want to speed up my boot-process and that mainly means I have to deal with netctl (as I'm using that for networking):
    I'm logging into my account via console login and I have a netctl-profile enabled to be started on boot (a simple wired connection, I want to have network when I'm at home without dealing with it manually), but I'm not reliant on have a network connection on boot.
    So I would like to have netctl do the networking stuff in the background, instead of having the console login waiting for netctl to finish (so it seems).
    The boot-process is accelerated heavily if I disable the netctl profile (netctl uses more than a half of the entire time userspace needs for booting), so I would like to get the console login while netctl is still working on the connection (especially when I'm not at home with my computer, so the connection is damned to fail but still takes time). Userspace might technically not boot faster then, but from the user's perspective it does, as the time netctl uses is approximately the time I need to type login and password.
    I haven't found an adequate option for the profile in the manpage netctl.profile nor on the netclt-manpage nor in the wiki nor somewhere else.
    Writing a custom service-file won't be a problem. I tried that, though, but that didn't solve the problem, console login is also delayed this way, but that might be due to not having used the right options in the service-file.
    If anyone has an idea how to archive this I would be glad to hear about. (I hope my post wasn't too confusing. )
    Thanks!

    If you use the [email protected] (this is what happens if you use "netctl enable <profile>") then it will fully wait for an IP before the network.target is reached.  If you use [email protected] then it will complete the network.target once it has loaded all the profiles that don't have "ExcludeAuto=yes".  This is because netctl-auto is meant to be used as a service with proper roaming support.  So it assumes that you won't absolutely be in range of a profiled network when it starts, so it just loads the potential configurations and then reports completion.
    To use netctl-auto, I think you will also need to ensure you have wpa_actiond installed as well.  If you only really have one configuration that you want it to potentially connect to on boot, then just put "ExcludeAuto=yes" into all the other profiles. If when you start the netctl-auto service (whether on boot or otherwise) and it is in range of more than one available profile, you can use "Priority=<#>" to ensure that it will connect to the network you want.  This is particularly useful if you use a dual-band router with two different SSIDs.

  • [SOLVED] Problem with "su" and "login".

    Hi, I reinstalled Arch Linux today when I updated "filesystem" and reboot appeared an error with root device, but I solved with installation CD.
    I restarted laptop after solving error with root device when I went to XFCE4 and open a terminal I tried to login as root with "su" and "su -" but showed this error:
    bash: su: command not found
    So I rebooted to start in text mode.
    When loaded SLIM I press ctrl+alt+F1 to enter text mode.
    I type root to login but did'nt appear to enter the pass, appeared again to enter login. I tried type my user but did the same.
    Someone can help me?

  • Solve equation with one unknown parameter (x)

    I am working on a Windows Phone program that calculates taxes due. One of the calculations is a formula/equation with an unknown 'x'. I have searched a lot on solving equations with vb but this really exceeds my - admittedly small - math knob. Perhaps you
    can help me out.
    The equation to solve is (for example):
    ((25000 + x) * 0.06) + x = 16500
    The only unknown variable is x. Does someone know the proper code to solve this equation?

    Are you looking to code some super-intelligent maths equation solver that can solve any type of equation (if so - good luck!)? Or are the equations you want to solve all of the same type?
    The example you gave is of the form (A + x) * B + x = C. You can rearrange that to (1 + B) * x + A * B = C and from there to x = (C - A * B) / (1 + B).
    If all your equations are in that form, you just need to identify the value of A, B and C and use the last formula I gave to calculate x.
    I wasn't going to do that for him.
    Let's see here, he's building a program for tax calculation and he can't do 8th grade algebra??
    Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.

  • Issues configuring broadcom wl driver with netctl and wpa_supplicant

    After quite some hurdle, I managed to get the wireless working with a Broadcom 4322 with the wl driver working. But there are two minor issues which I'd like to ask the more experienced audience:
    With netctl, I need to manually interact with wpa_supplicant. This was not needed for the same setup on a different machine with a different driver. I'm fine with that, but when it comes to directing the wpa config to netctl, I had to make the config available as /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf because this is the default for netctl. But according to the man page for netctl, netctl offers the option to specify WPAConfigFile, which should be enabled when Security is set to wpa-config. So, I'd like to have the following config:
    /etc/netctl/myWirelessSetup:
    Interface=eth0
    Connection=wireless
    Security=wpa-config
    IP=dhcp
    ESSID=
    Key=
    WPAConfigFile=/etc/wpa_supplicant/myWPASupplicantSetup
    The reason I did it this way is because I ran into a dependency issue with netcfg when not having a wpa_supplicant config file.
    The other issue I have with the broadcom wl driver is that it forces the naming of the wireless device to be eth0, which I don't like. I tried to set it according to the Network wiki, but on boot udev reported a busy device, so I gave up on that.
    I'd appreciate if anybody can point me on what I'm doing wrong.

    yeah, I know it seems odd, but when you install broadcom-wl, it sets the interface to eth0. You'll find it in the wiki. I also know it's eth0 because that's the interface I use to connect to wifi at home.

  • [solved] "adsl.service" does not start with "netctl" sometimes

    I recently moved from "netcfg" to "netctl".
    Solution. I copied "/usr/lib/systemd/system/adsl.service" into a new service and added a line
    After=[email protected]
    under "[Unit]"

    It goes definitely against any logic.
    The service file looks good, but I've copied it to /usr/lib/systemd/system/bdsl.service. Same contents - and the new one launches succesfully.
    I've deleted the original ...adsl.service file, verified that it disappeared, copied it back from the new bdsl.service file, and it still does not launch.
    [EDIT]
    I've erased the drive, restored the system from a 1 week old backup, started it - everything worked. Then I'v updated the whole system, including the rp-pppoe package, and the adsl service is failing again.
    Downgrading solves the problem. Should I file a bug report?

    I'm wondering what is up. I have a very fresh (no WM yet) arch linux install on a laptop i intend to use at school, needless to say i can't use it there unless i got proper wireless.
    Would you suggest i just switch to wicd? (i'm more familiar with wicd, but as i recall i think i had this set up and working fine with netcfg once upon a time.)

    i tried according to the wiki using

    The only 2 programs i've installed apart from the core that came with the pacstrap last night are 'dialog' (for wifi-menu) and wpa_supplicant (with no particular configuration). Am i missing a dependency or doing something wrong?

    I'll be using both ethernet and wireless on this laptop at random pretty much, i'm now scratching my head over how i can make it use ethernet anytime it's connected but otherwise look for a wireless network.
    I'm not understanding how that bonding thing works, so i don't know if i can rely on it for that purpose or not.
    This would be no problem if the whole thing was better designed. I need 1 extra dependency (ifplugd) to be able to automate switching between ethernet profiles and another(wpa_actiond) to be able to do the same for wireless profiles, i don't want to start both of them because it would most likely have a heavy impact on my boot time. all i want it to do is choose between dhcp ethernet or two different wireless connections.
    i was kindof hoping i could trick netctl-ifplugd into runing netctl-auto if it fails.

    I've had this happen now and again. You can rebind the lease yourself with:
    $ dhcpcd --rebind
    You could also try increasing the timeout by adding
    TimeoutDHCP=
    to your netctl profile/s - see netctl.profile(5) as WonderWoofy suggests. Although I haven't tried the latter.

  • WPA2 Enterprise with netctl

    Hi,
    I'm trying to connect to my university wifi which I believe is WPA2 Enterprise protected. I read the wiki about using the Eduroam netctl profile example for WPA2 Enterprise networks but it doesn't seem to work for me. This is what I have:
    Connection='wireless'
    Interface=wlp4s0b1
    Security='wpa-configsection'
    Description="nyu wpa2 network"
    IP='dhcp'
    TimeoutWPA=30
    WPAConfigSection=(
    'ssid="nyu"'
    'key_mgmt=WPA-EAP'
    'eap=PEAP'
    'proto=WPA2'
    'phase2="auth=PAP"' #maybe MSCHAPv2
    'auth_alg=OPEN' #maybe
    'anonymous_identity="anonymous"' # ex: tu-dresden.de
    'identity="myusername"' # ex: [email protected]
    'password="mypassword"'
    'ca_cert="/usr/share/ca-certificates/trust-source/mozilla.trust.crt"'
    Can someone point me to related info or correct my profile? Thanks.

    Does your university have a site with some information/guidance for using eduroam?
    Have you tried other example profiles from here, such as this one and  this one? The wiki refers to this AUR package, which seems to be where you got the profile you've tried. Perhaps try the other example profiles.

    my netctl profile:
    Description='netcup uplink ipv4/6'
    Interface=eth0
    #Interface=ens3 ### ... WHICH WORKED BEFORE
    Connection=ethernet
    IP=dhcp
    IP6=static
    Address6=('someipv6/64')
    #Routes6=('someipv6')
    #Gateway6=('someipv6')
    I already tried the old and new interface-names in the profile, but neither worked.
    Now I only can connect if I run dhcpcd, which doesn't work for IPv6.
    Any ideas where the problem could be?

    after looking around a bit I found that in /etc/systemd/system there is a file called '[email protected]' with this content:
    .include /usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]
    [Unit]
    Description=netcup uplink ipv4/6
    BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-ens3.device
    After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-ens3.device
    Changing the last to lines to the right interface name made it work again.
    BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth0.device
    After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth0.device
    Don't know why systemd changed the name of my interface, but I'm anxious to know when it will do it again.
    Works for now. So its kind of solved.

    Solved.  For some reason I suddenly needed to add a hand-rolled ~/.fonts.conf -- one might have hoped that the Xfce settings would actually work for the Xfce panel and menus, but I guess not.
