Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager-pptp
There are many bugs about vpn secrets in NM, but they appear to be about communicating with keyrings in user-level connections. And comments are cluttered with descriptions of different situations. Let's try a fresh start with one specific situation: - system-wide pptp connection - password field get emptied on saving connection profile - when attempting to connect, it fails immediately, syslog shows 'No VPN secrets!' message (strictly with that spelling). affects: latest NM in karmic and also packages from deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/trunk/ubuntu karmic main latest as of now. (network-manager-pptp 0.8~a~git.20091212t102930.0c78581-0ubuntu1~nmt1~karmic) Identical user-level profile works fine Where does system-wide vpn connection supposed to save password? Is there a valid syntax to manually add it as a property to /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/vpn_profile_name ? ** Affects: network-manager-pptp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Password doesn't get saved in system-wide pptp connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/500718 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
