I'm running Ubuntu 12.04. I am attmpting to create the first OpenVPN in Network Manager. I installed Network Management framework(OpenVPN plugin) and network amangement framework(OpenVPN plugin for Gnome GUI).
I click on the network manager icon (side by side UP and DOWN arrow) then click on VPN Connections -> Configure VPN... the VPN tab is selected so I click on the Add button, in the Choose a VPN Connection Type popup I select OpenVPN then click on the Create button. Then a new window appears. It is labelled Editing VPN connection 1 and the Connection Name box is filled in with VPN connection 1. I fill in the gateway field, change Authentication Type to Password, fill in the username, change Password type to Always Ask, leave CA Certificate as None and the Save button and Available to all users check box remain greyed out. Presumably the GUI thinks there is some crucial piece of information missing. For comparison I tried creating an Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) VPN and the Save button and Available to all users check box changed from greyed out to "clickable" as soon as I entered something in the Gateway box. Please step me through creation of an OpenVPN with username and password authentication or shared key authentication. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990765 Title: "Save" button always greyed out when creating openvpn connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/990765/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
