NAME

       wicd-manager-settings.conf - contains settings that control Wicd's behavior

DESCRIPTION

       This file contains general configuration information for Wicd.
       This file is located at /etc/wicd/manager-settings.conf

SETTINGS

       link_detect_tool = <0|1|2>
	      0 = autodetect
	      1 = ethtool
	      2 = mii-tool

       flush_tool = <0|1|2>
	      0 = autodetect
	      1 = ip
	      2 = route

       backend = <ioctl|external>
	      Default is ioctl backend.

       signal_display_type = <0|1>
	      0 = Show signal strength as a percentage
	      1 = Show signal strength in dBm

       dhcp_client = <0|1|2|3>
	      0 = autodetect
	      1 = dhclient
	      2 = dhcpcd
	      3 = pump

       sudo_app = <0|1|2|3>
	      0 = autodetect
	      1 = gksu
	      2 = kdesu
	      3 = ktsuss

       wired_interface = <interface_name>

       always_show_wired_interface = <True|False>

       wired_connect_mode = <0|1>
	      0 = connect to wired interface automatically
	      1 = do not connect to wired interface automatically

       prefer_wired = <True|False>
	      True = Switch to wired interface if a link is detected, even if already connected to wireless
	      False = Do not switch to wired interface automatically

       wireless_interface = <name_of_wireless_interface>

       wpa_driver = <wext|madwifi|ndiswrapper|hostap|hermes|atmel|broadcom|ipw|ralinklegacy|none>
	      The  default  (and  best	supported)  is wext.  It should work properly in most cases.  The none special value makes WICD pass no -D
	      parameter to wpa_supplicant, which might be useful in some cases.

       auto_reconnect = <True|False>
	      This settings determines whether Wicd will attempt to reconnect on connection loss.

       use_global_dns = <True|False>
	      If set to "True" and values are specified in the global DNS settings below, this will cause Wicd to use these DNS settings.

       global_dns_dom = <plaintext_domain_name>
	      This specifies the default search domain to be used by the resolver.

       global_dns_1 = <ip_address>

       global_dns_2 = <ip_address>

       global_dns_3 = <ip_address>

       debug_mode = <integer_value>
	      0 = disabled
	      1 = enabled
