Hello all, I tried to find the problem, because the option --pull is set! If you execute ps aux after starting the vpn connection you will see that this is started:
/usr/sbin/openvpn --remote openvpn.rus.uni-stuttgart.de --comp-lzo --nobind --dev tun --proto udp --port 1194 --cipher AES-256-CBC --syslog nm-openvpn --up /usr/lib/network-manager-openvpn/nm-openvpn-service- openvpn-helper --up-restart --persist-key --persist-tun --management 127.0.0.1 1194 --management-query-passwords --client --ns-cert-type server --ca /home/....cacert.pem --cert /home/....clcert.pem --key /home/...key.pem --auth-user-pass The option --client is a alias for --pull, so that is not the problem. When I replace openvpn with a sh script that start openvpn without the --up /usr/lib/network-manager-openvpn/nm-openvpn-service-openvpn-helper and --up-restart options it works! But Networkmanager don't get a feedback and said that the openvpn connection failed. I believe that the problem is hidden in the nm-openvpn-service-openvpn-helper. Maybe it helps to find a solution. -- [Feisty] NetworkManager OpenVPN doesn't have a pull option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88069 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
