ad #12: Strange, for me, vpn can be established also from the GUI. I checked it with two machines, both Lubuntu-16.04 under kernels 4.4.0-25 and 4.6.0-7.
Have you checked that you can set - up vpn via the console by using the "ipsec" commands? (That worked also when I had the problem with establishing vpn from the GUI!). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1570352 Title: strongswan vpn cannot be established via the network-manager To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-strongswan/+bug/1570352/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
