Bug Description
Intrepid,
network-manager: 0.7~~svn2008081
Subject says it. To reproduce:
1. Configure VPN connection
2. Try to Export it to a file
As a result I got cryptic error message dialog:
===
Cannot export VPN connection
The VPN connection 'vpn_test' could not be exported to vpn_test (pptp).conf.
Error: unknown error.
===
Expected behavior:
Configuration saved to a file.
=============
WORKAROUND
The configuration is saved in a file in /etc/NetworkMan
that has the same name as the connection.
This file can be examined with a text editor and/or copied around to other machines.

0.7 vpn support was quite new when i last uploaded it. There have been substantial improvements in the meantime. Please test when the next upload when i make the next snapshot available and comment her whether that helped. Thanks!
