Public bug reported:

Using: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
IcedTea version "1.2-2ubuntu1.2"
chrome "23.0.1271.10 dev"

I cannot connect to my University VPN. The site is myvpn.ubc.ca, but you
would need credentials to test it.

It says the IcedTea plugin is out of date, but clicking the update link
just takes me to the icedtea.classpath.org website.

If I click "Run Anyway" it hangs saying "Using Sun Java for Installation
Sun Java applet has started. This could take up to 60 seconds. Please wait...". 
It will hang at  this point indefinitely, I have left it for hours at a time 
once with no change. 

This is in google chrome (version mentioned above). However the same
issue happens in firefox, with the only difference being that I do not
get an "out of date" warning. But it still hangs in the same place once
it tries to start.

Note that connecting to this VPN via the site mentioned above worked
perfectly fine a few months ago. Then it just stopped working.

This is the only way I have of connecting to my VPN (Other clients like
the one built into Ubuntu desktop do not seem to work despite me
providing all the necessary information).

With this issue, linux is effectively useless to me (VPNs are kind of
important....)! Please fix.
