Password verification failed
I am able to establish the session by manually running openvpn from the
command line, using the same username, password, and the ovpn file from
which NetworkManager imported the setttings.
I'm running Xubuntu 16.10 (yakkety).
I did not have this problem in Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial).
