A bigger problem though is that Networkmanager should support .ovpn (openvpn conf files). Currently, NM does not allow users to import them, but this would fix MANY other issues where users complain that NM is not accepting their parameters. If NM wants to work properly with existing .ovpn files, all that needs to be done is to accept a config file from the user in the GUI and then build the CLI parameters to include the --config <ovpn-file>.
Eg: /usr/sbin/openvpn ... --config myconfig.ovpn ... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1217094 Title: Strong HMAC authentication (SHA256, SHA512) that is supported by OpenVPN cannot be selected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/1217094/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
