Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
0.7~~svn20081008t224042-0ubuntu3~nm1~hardy2
I'm trying to import cisco vpn settings (*.pcf files). Most strings work
but the enc_GroupPwd= string (which is a hash of the group password) is
not imported. The GroupPwd= string can be manually set, but there is no
way to import or set enc_GroupPwd.
The normal behavior in companies is to distribute a cisco .pcf file to
vpn clients. They won't give out the group password in clear text (yes,
i tried to use the string here too on a long shot).
Being able to either support the import of the enc_GroupPwd and/or set
the hash string in the gui would be beneficial to a lot of people using
company VPN. Currently we are stuck with using the cisco vpn client and
using NM would be much nicer.
** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
