How to get VPNC working on FC5?

[Derek Atkins <warlord MIT EDU>]

hi,

I just upgraded from FC3 to FC5 and modulo a few issues it seems to
be working okay..  I wanted to play with the VPNC plugin, so I created
a new VPN configuration but I can't figure out how to tell NM to
actually startup the VPN!

>From the applet, I left click, go to VPN Connections, and all I see are
"Configure VPN" and "Disconnect VPN" (the latter greyed out).

I thought that maybe it didn't like the space in the name of my VPN
so I tried to edit the name..  And then I had TWO copies of the config
(I guess 'Edit' with a name-change didn't auto-delete the older configuration
like I expected it to).  I then deleted the old config.

SOMEWHERE along the way I got these messages on my terminal (where I
started the applet).

Any ideas?  Suggestions?

Do I need to clear out my old FC3 gconf configuration?

Thanks!
