Hi, Setup an OpenVPN connection with NetworkManager 1.0.10 is not always painless... I ended up with a setup where an infinite number of openvpn daemons tried to connect to one single server. The problem seems to be that NetworkManager does not (or at least not in any case) stop a VPN connection (stop the openvpn daemon) to a particular remote before setting up a new VPN connection (start an openvpn daemon) to the same remote.
It seems the the pending child processes in nm-openvpn-service are not properly tracked. I opened BZ https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=761299 for that and patch https://git.gnome.org/browse/network-manager-openvpn/log/?h=th/handle-child-process-bgo761299 is on review. ... Thought his patch will not trivially backport to nm-1-0 branch... Thomas
