Well I haven't used it in GNOME since the recent icon changes, but assuming that wasn't a change... It showed a yellow lock swooshing into place a few times as it was authenticating. Once the tunnel was authenticated and up, the lock would sit there, on the right side of the connected icon (I've only done this with wireless, I assume it'd put the yellow lock on top of the wired connection icon as well). If the VPN dropped, the yellow lock would go away, and you'd get a notification saying that the VPN was disconnected. The command line client, on the other hand, dies silently. Which is annoying. It might go to syslog, I don't know, but it doesn't attempt to send a dbus call or anything to bring up a notification. -- Mackenzie Morgan http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com apt-get moo
