Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager-openvpn
Hi, I can't get openvpn with preshared key working with network-manager (from command line it works fine). Problem seems to be, that although I don't use tls mode there's a parameter added (not configurable nor via gui nor via gconf editor) which is valid only in tls mode (ns_cert_type).
