IMO auth is ok - if you really get an authentication dialog. I didn't get any and I had mst stuff set on "no". The problem with "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.sleep-wake" is that ut's not clear what it does - and if there is any documentation to look it up I've not found it yet. For me it's totally baffeling how somebody with a sane mind would develop such a monstrosity. Most likly it's corporate stuff developed by managers and GNOMES ...
Anyway, I have these after adding the mentioned file and networkmanager behavers "sane" - which translates to "does not get in my way":
Maybe I need to restart my machine? restart my session? restart tdenetworkmanager? When I get a moment to try these steps ...
In the interest of others in the future who may wish to know about these things, I have made the sacrifice, and rebooted my machine. And anyway, top was showing 24 zombies, so I thought I might as well.
Now, I have already created that file for polkit, #/etc/polkit-1/rules.d/50-org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.rules I made it readable for all users, just to be sure it would get noticed, if it were to have any effect. (By the way, there was nothing there; it was just an empty folder.) I followed Nik's prescription to the letter, I believe, then I ran that command; and again I get the same output, nothing changed.
I don't think it was supposed to be an executable file, and doesn't look like a shell script, so I can only suppose that my machine behaves differently from Nik's, though I don't know why.
Restarting network, session, and even rebooting the machine cause no c

By the way, anybody who has an idea how to kill off all zombies, I would be interested. Not that they're really doing anything bad, I guess, but sometimes I see 36 or 42 zombies, and it's annoying that they don't just go away by themselves. But that ought to be a separate thread! if I get around to it.
