This may not be a limitation of network manager. I hit something similar today while trying to do two-factor auth:
If I use this command line: sudo openvpn --config client.ovpn --auth- retry interact, I am prompted for my username, password, then when auth "fails" I am prompted for my second-factor key. However, if I add this: "--auth-user-pass up" the first part of auth succeeds, but when it "fails" due to the second factor, instead of falling back to "interact" it just fails and tries to auth all over. Does --auth-user-pass up "override" --auth-retry interact somehow? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1322728 Title: VPN Connection Failed With 2 Factor Authentication To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/1322728/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
