save_secrets will only get called if the password is "agent-owned", ie if the password flags for that password include NM_SETTING_SECRETS_FLAG_AGENT_OWNED. The pptp plugin doesn't set up any of these flags when importing yet, something which I think I have to fix. Basically, when importing a connection, or creating a new connection from scratch, the plugin should probably call: nm_setting_set_secret_flags (s_vpn, NM_PPTP_KEY_PASSWORD, NM_SETTING_SECRETS_FLAG_AGENT_OWNED); Dan > Looking at the debug output of NetworkManager below, I am pretty clueless on > how > to continue debugging this.
