Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager-openvpn

Hy!

I have an openvpn server what runs two instances of openvpn, one udp for lan clients, and one tcp for internet clients... the configs are simlar except of listen address, proto, port...

I have client configs for both of them on my machine... on karmic I imported both, ant both worked fine...
Now on lucid, I can't connect over the internet (tcp) on from the command line with openvpn directly (what works properly)

I don't know what causes the problem, but the log says that network-manager signals openvpn multiple times to reset connection for no reason before it fails...

I don't know it's related to the protocol difference, or the bigger lathenci over internet :(

I'l attach the failing config, and a part of syslog that I think is relevant.

I can't found a workaround yet, and have to openvpn from the terminal every time... not a big deal, but an ugly regression in an LTS release, and nobody even answer to me :(

Please help me found the root of the problem!
