Awesome stuff! > I think that would be great.

Can we just import them automatically on the first run of this dialog. Do something like: First Run of config dialog --------------------------------- | Would you like to import these| | configurations from Cisco VPN?| | [x] RH Bos | | [x] RH RDU | | [x] RH STU | | [Cancel] [OK] | --------------------------------- Import all checked options The first time you run this dialog, if you've been using Cisco VPN it would be nice to just offer to get all those options back so the person doesn't have to work through anything else. Maybe it even makes more sense to run this dialog from the nm-applet instead of waiting for the person to run the VPN configurations. Perhaps you could then offer the option to "Import Cisco VPN Connections to vpnc" (from the drop-down list of VPNs) give the same import options as above. Just thinking out loud for this part.
