I've just had this today as well. I'm using xubuntu and had to
kill/restart the nm-applet (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/network-manager-applet/+bug/1006141 - seems related to suspend/resume).
In my case, going into vpn->edit showed that the group password was marked as
"saved" but was blank for one vpn. Another vpnc vpn entry was marked as saved
but had the correct group password. Both prompt for group password on connect
and fail without entering itii network-manager

Title:
Prompts for both the user and group passwords even though group
password has been saved
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Using up to date 12.10. Despite the group password having been saved, I am
being prompted to enter both my user password and the group password upon
initiating a VPN connection. This is a new issue with 12.10. Thinking this
might be related to the the 12.04 to 12.10 upgrade, I have tried creating a new
VPN account, but got the same result. VPN type is "Cisco Compatible VPN(vpnc)".
