I had this issue and it turned out my RSA SecureID token was slightly out of sync with the RSA server. Apparently this can happen if you don't VPN in for a while (months?).
When starting vpnc via the command line I was prompted for a password and passcode. The passcode is the next code to appear on your RSA SecureID token. This should re-sync the server with your token again. Then try establishing a connection again, like me it might work for you. I described the issue here as well: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=157&t=80319#p887986 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/738849 Title: The VPN connection 'xxx' failed because of invalid VPN secrets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/738849/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
