Hi, looking at the logfile of NetworkManager might be helpful. You should enable debug logging level though. See the hints at https://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/contrib/fedora/rpm/NetworkManager.conf You can also enable more logging for the plugin, by enabling the VPN_PLUGIN logging domain too. Note that level=TRACE domains=ALL does not enable VPN_PLUGIN:TRACE level. It does so, because this logging level might cause sensitive data to be logged(*), so you have to explicitly enable it via level=TRACE domains=ALL,VPN_PLUGIN:TRACE (*) check the logfile before posting. best, Thomas
