The behaviour I am seeing with the OpenVPN plugin is a little different,
but still gives the same result.

The private key password does not seem to be displayed in the VPN edit
window. I had assumed that this was a security feature, but perhaps it
is not being saved? Anyway despite attempting to save the password
several times it does not show up in the window when the VPN is reopened
for editing I don't get asked for the password when trying to connect
and I still get the same error "get_secrets: assertion `secrets_idx <
SECRETS_REQ_LAST failed"  when trying to connect.

Personaly I preferred the behaviour in version 10.04 where the private
key password could be stored in the keyring. I don't know why this was
changed.

Title:
  vpnc fails with "get_secrets: assertion `secrets_idx <
  SECRETS_REQ_LAST' failed"

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm using a Cisco VPN connection. Everything used to just work. Today,
  after I installed Ubuntu updates, it hangs while trying to connect,
  with no error messages.

  I also noticed that before, it only asked me for password when
  connecting. Now it's also asking for a "group password" - even though
  I set it to "saved" in the configuration.
