Using networkmanager-openvpn- 0.9.8.4 patched to use libsecret, I am unable to
connect.
After configuring the vpn connection using gnome-control-center, I'm prompted
for the vpn password, but after entering it I get the error " Connection
activation failed: the VPN service failed to start".
Running from the command line gives the output below.
The tun module is compiled into the 3.8.13 kernel I'm using (CONFIG_TUN=y), is
this the source of the error?
Regards
John
