I'm also going to add to this. I have just done a clean install of 16.04 LTS and OpenVPN connects intermittently. Despite installing openvpn, network-manager-openvpn, and network-manager-openvpn-gnome, the "Configure VPN..." option remains grayed out.
In addition, after creating my VPN profile via 'Edit Connections...', I'm not able to consistently create a VPN tunnel to the office. Attached are 2 files: success and failure. Both files contain pertinent lines from /var/log/syslog with success showing a success full connection and failure showing a failed connection. In both cases, I get a notification pop-up that suggests that the vpn connected successfully :(. When the VPN fails to connect, the 'tun0' interface has no IP Address and is in a down state. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1640970 Title: 16.10: VPN Connections -> Configure VPN grayed out To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1640970/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
