I try to keep my Intrepid up-to-date, so I have most certainly updated packages between the time I submitted this bug and when I tried to reproduce it. I see from the logs I posted that when it failed completely I was running OpenVPN 2.1-rc9, while when it worked (disregarding LZO troubles) I was running 2.1-rc8. Most likely that's why the behaviour differs, I'll be able to confirm tormorrow. The failure is not intermittent - it fails with the openvpn_execve error every time now.

When it comes to enabling LZO compression... Jeez! I was looking for an "Advanced" tab all along, which was there under NM 0.6, but not there anymore under NM 0.7. The "Advanced..." button I completely overlooked (just noticed it now when I prepared to take a screenshot to prove to you it was not there). Embarrassing indeed... So at least this part of the bug report can be considered invalid; apologies for wasting your time.

I'll try to downgrade OpenVPN and get back to you tomorrow about the openvpn_execve error.
