Same problem. Anyhow invoking the command (and args ) unmodified as if NetworkManager would in a root terminal works fine:
usr/sbin/openvpn --remote VPN_SERVER_ADDR --comp-lzo --nobind --dev tap --proto tcp-client --port 1194 --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 CA_PATH --cert CERT_PATH --key KEY_PATH I also tried MIchael Trunner's version in a root terminal, works, too: usr/sbin/openvpn --remote VPN_SERVER_ADDR --comp-lzo --nobind --dev tap --proto tcp-client --port 1194 --syslog nm-openvpn --persist-key --persist-tun --management 127.0.0.1 1194 --management-query-passwords --client --ns-cert-type server --ca CA_PATH --cert CERT_PATH --key KEY_PATH -- [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
