It looks like PFS is already supported -- you'd need to use gconf-editor to create a string key containing whatever value you wanted, named "/system/networking/connections/NN/vpn/Perfect Forward Secrecy". The only problem with that is that you aren't allowed to create keys with spaces in the names, so you _can't_ create a key which makes use of the existing support. I suspect that option hasn't been used for a while. You might need to make the valid_properties table in nm-vpnc-service.c provide a second string containing the option to put into the config file, and then it can differ from the name of the gconf key. After that it should be easy enough for you to fix the PFS option and add a vendor option, at least so you can set them manually with gconf-editor. Extending the GUI to allow you to set those options shouldn't be _so_ hard, either... -- David Woodhouse Open Source Technology Centre [email protected] Intel Corporation _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
