Re: OpenVpn plugin NeedSecret

[Francesco Andrisani <francesco andrisani acotel com>]

OK.

So i've installed openvpn client on my workstation with certificate authentication and...it work fine.
About NetworkManager-openvpn i've installed (from sources) 0.9.0 version, the same of NetworkManager (it also installed from sources).

A clarification...i use the system without X server (no gnome, no kde).
Below my NetworkManager and NetworkManager-openvpn configuration files. 

debian:/etc/NetworkManager# cat system-connections/VPNconnection 
[connection]
id=VPNconnection
uuid=355653c0-34d3-4777-ad25-f9a498b7ef8e
type=vpn
autoconnect=FALSE

[ipv4]
method=auto

[vpn]
name=openvpn
service-type=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn

[ipv6]
method=ignore

I've no secrets specified here, Is it correct? I've no password for start opevpn client manually. Only certificate authentication.

debian:/etc/NetworkManager# cat VPN/nm-openvpn-service.name 
[VPN Connection]
name=openvpn
service=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn
program=/usr/libexec/nm-openvpn-service

Regards

This part is the problem.  Any chance you could paste in your vpn
connection file from /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections for us to
look at?  Remove any passwords and XXXX out any sensitive information
before doing so.

Any idea what version of NetworkManager-openvpn you've got installed?
