My VPN conf file had a cipher and, commented out, a data-cipher option. I uncommented data-cipher and commented cipher and tried via gnome- control-center to add that VPN instead. It worked in 24.10 and 24.04, I can connect to that VPN normally (confirmed with IP) so I`m marking this releaased there.
I`ll be test in 22.04 too because a comment mentions that release. The original bug report is on 22.10 which is no longer supported. A clearer reproduction case with release information would be still very ewelcome. ** Also affects: network-manager (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: network-manager-openvpn (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: network-manager (Ubuntu Noble) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: network-manager-openvpn (Ubuntu Noble) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: network-manager (Ubuntu Oracular) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Also affects: network-manager-openvpn (Ubuntu Oracular) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Also affects: network-manager (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: network-manager-openvpn (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: network-manager-openvpn (Ubuntu Oracular) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Changed in: network-manager-openvpn (Ubuntu Noble) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1993634 Title: network-manager-openvpn: --cipher option deprecated in OpenVPN 2.6, no option to set suggested --data-ciphers flag instead Status in NetworkManager-OpenVPN: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager-openvpn package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in network-manager source package in Focal: New Status in network-manager-openvpn source package in Focal: New Status in network-manager source package in Jammy: New Status in network-manager-openvpn source package in Jammy: New Status in network-manager source package in Noble: New Status in network-manager-openvpn source package in Noble: Fix Released Status in network-manager source package in Oracular: Confirmed Status in network-manager-openvpn source package in Oracular: Fix Released Bug description: Latest network-manager-openvpn still uses the deprecated --cipher option, and offers no way to set the new --data-ciphers option. nm-openvpn[257279]: OPTIONS ERROR: failed to negotiate cipher with server.
