vpn secrets

[Leo Butler <l butler ed ac uk>]

Hi There,

I am trying to configure a VPN connection with NM.
For some reason, NM is not finding the secrets it
needs, even if these are saved as part of the
configuration. The relevant log messages are below.
This VPN connection does work with vpnc from the
command-line.

I am using debian testing.
