Please advice: I'm having a bug in Ubuntu Trusty Tahr 14.04 LTS that is
very much related to this bug, but it might not be quite the same. So I
can either file a new bug report or reopen this one.

The issue I'm having is that although the VPN auto-connects for
connections that are marked as such. It only does so when connecting to
the particular connection manually. e.g. I select the wireless network
in the network-manager.

It however does not auto-connect when wireless is enabled or if the
network comes into range. It connects and authenticates fine with the
wireless network, but then fails to connect the vpn. It returns the
following error in syslog:

<error> [1401130450.367538] [nm-vpn-connection.c:1374] get_secrets_cb():
Failed to request VPN secrets #2: (6) No agents were available for this
request.

Should I reopen this bug or file a new one?

      core: VPN autoconnect feature (bgo #560471) (rh #483120)

      We go through the SECONDARIES state where we check if there are some
  secondary
      (VPN or other) UUIDs that are to be activated before progressing to
  ACTIVATED.
      In case of an error with a secondary UUID or its activation, the base
  connection
      can't activate successfully.
