Using an OATH token setup to access a remote OpenVPN server run by my employer. This means I'm filling in a username but no password in the configuration dialog and expect to be prompted for an OTP on connection establishment. With the provided nm-openvpn-service.conf content, an attempt to establish a VPN connection does not result in the expected password entry dialog box. In fact, there is no visible activity on the desktop at all. However, the following shows up in syslog: May 9 09:22:14 rover NetworkManager[3149]: <info> Starting VPN service 'openvpn'... May 9 09:22:14 rover NetworkManager[3149]: <info> VPN service 'openvpn' started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn), PID 17457 May 9 09:22:14 rover NetworkManager[3149]: <info> VPN service 'openvpn' appeared; activating connections May 9 09:22:14 rover NetworkManager[3149]: <error> [1304954534.441698] [nm-vpn-connection.c:819] connection_need_secrets_cb(): NeedSecrets failed: dbus-glib-error-quar k Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.3" (uid=0 pid=3149 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager ") interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.

With that, things work as expected. If there's a better fix, I'd be happy to know it. Bdale
