NAME

dhcpcd-gtk β€” a GTK+ frontend for network configuration

DESCRIPTION

dhcpcd-gtk is a GTK+ frontend for network configuration. It uses dhcpcd (8) and wpa_supplicant (8) as backends. dhcpcd (8) needs to be running in Master mode for dhcpcd-gtk to work with it.

If dhcpcd-gtk is used to make configuration changes then the user needs to be able to write to the privileged dhcpcd control socket as well as /etc/dhcpcd.conf . See dhcpcd.conf (5) for details.

wpa_supplicant

dhcpcd-gtk relies on wpa_supplicant (8) being configured to write its sockets to /var/run/wpa_supplicant. If dhcpcd-gtk is used to select and set pass phrases for wireless networks then update_config=1 needs to be set in wpa_supplicant.conf.
