High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Wicd, which stands for Wireless Interface Connection Daemon, is an open source software utility to manage both wireless and wired networks for Linux. The project started in late 2006 with the creation of Connection Manager, which eventually became Wicd. Wicd aims to provide a simple interface to connect to networks with a wide variety of settings. Wicd will only automatically connect to wireless networks you have specified and will not automatically connect to an unknown network. Wicd supports a unique type of system for wireless encryption using the powerful wpa supplicant. Users can design their own "templates", which can be used by Wicd to connect to a large variety of networks using any type of encryption wpa_supplicant supports. Because Wicd does not use any GNOME dependencies, it can be used on GNOME, KDE, Xfce, Fluxbox, FVWM or any other window manager.
