Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-
When i try to connect, the applet sends a "disconnect" command to the server while the server is checking the key.
This will abort the connection just because the applet does not wait more until the server answer.
This problem depends from server loads (this is logic, if the server is busy, the answer will take more time and the applet doesn't wait the server answer)
Using openvpn from terminal the connection works

I can confirm this. For me, over slow connections the openvpn plugin gives up too quickly. using openvpn from the commandline can take 20 seconds if the connection is particularly slow or saturated. The plugin usually gives up after around 5 seconds.
The openvpn plugin should have a longer timeout, or the timeout should be configurable.
