I know this is late - but just for clarity this is still not working 100% in Maverick. The fix as mentioned above in disparate places is easy, and I summarise:
1-Go into "Edit connections" and highlight your VPN connection. 2-"VPN Tab", "Advanced" and set "Use LZO compression" to on. 3-"OK" 4-"Ipv4 Settings" Tab, "Routes" and check "Use this connection only for resources on it's network" You should now be good to go. This took me 2 days trying to fix things server side before I checked it on a Windows box and discovered the server was 100%. DOH!!! It would be good if this worked out of the box as many people are stuck on 10.10 until Unity settles down. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655124 Title: Network-manager-openvpn connects but can not be used To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/655124/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
