As far as I can determine this is still unresolved. I can connect to my vpn using a suitably configured script file from the command line, but am still unable to do it via the network manager applet.

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.
