Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager-vpnc
If I try to connect to my VPN connection that uses VPNC with group name,
group password and user name but NOT user password this connection
fails.
Started NM from CLI and got this on my console:
NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): device state change: 7 -> 8 (reason 0)
NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): writing resolv.conf to /sbin/resolvconf
NetworkManager: <info> Policy set 'Auto eth0' (eth0) as default for routing
and DNS.
NetworkManager: <info> Activation (eth0) successful, device activated.
NetworkManager: <info> Activation (eth0) Stage 5 of 5 (IP Configure Commit)

** (process:3944): WARNING **: <WARN> vpnc_watch_cb(): vpnc exited with

NetworkManager: <WARN> connection_state_changed(): Could not process the

NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): writing resolv.conf to /sbin/resolvconf

So I guess it's related to the user password being blank.
It works fine if I run vpnc from cli instead.
