Help with OpenVPN Connection

[José Queiroz <zekkerj gmail com>]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup an OpenVPN connection, but I think I'm missing some point, because I'm stuck.

The server side is setup (afaik) and ready, and I already managed to get a manual connection working.

Now, I want to setup NM-OpenVPN also, but all I'm getting are "Failed to update VPN secrets: 3 Secret no-secret was empty" errors.

I'm using Kubuntu 10.04, package versions:

network-manager: 0.8.1+git.20101009t040337.01fa170-0ubuntu1~nmt1~lucid1
network-manager-openvpn: 0.8-0ubuntu3
network-manager-openvpn-kde: 0.9~svn1137272-0ubuntu2~lucid1~ppa1

The connection uses only PEM Certificates (by the way, may I use a PKCS12 certificate on it?), no connection passwords, except the key file password.
I'm using the same certificate files used in the manual connection, so they're OK.

I need some directions to get this working.

Thanks.
