I am using Ubuntu 12.04 (fully updated). Recently, something has broken the existing (was working ok!)
Import VPN and
Disconnect VPN (both now greyed out)
options in network manager menu available at the top of the display.
I confirm this is in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, not a more recent release.

I am continuing using VPN, based on openvpn I believe, which I have previously imported, this continues to be displayed, and work. However the menu option to 'Disconnect VPN' no longer is offered (greyed out).
I have a second intallation of Ubuntu 12.04 on the machine (multi boot) and it also shows the same problem.

I note that previously, above, on 2014-09-08 I said I would have liked to start using the later LTS being Ubuntu 14.04, however, the bug in Network Manager(?) prevented me, because I use VPN a lot.

If more information is neede please let me know?
