** Description changed: + Running: Kubuntu 24.04 + As openvpn 2.5 is EOL starting July 2024 (in days) I upgraded our servers to 2.6 I was then not able to connect to the openvpn server using Network Manager (2.5 server was fine) I could still connect via cli. I found the issue was the fact Network Manager has no concept of data- ciphers - cli connected even without a data-ciphers line. I eventually found out how to fix this (randomly) I found the netplan file associated with the vpn connection - in my case /etc/netplan/90-NM-593c9490-1bcc-4063-97e8-9a42ae7faa3c.yaml I edited it and added a line (I randomly guessed this would work) - vpn.data-ciphers: + vpn.data-ciphers: "AES-256-CBC:AES-256-GCM:AES-128-GCM:CHACHA20-POLY1305" Then applied netplan and restarted NetworkManager And now I can connect... Seeing as now any versions openvpn below 2.6 are EOL shouldn't network manager be fixed fairly soon ? Also if I then make any changes in Network manager to the vpn profile it breaks it (by removing the line) (is this an issue with sticking with Plasma 5.x also ?
