Affects Intrepid Ibex 8.10
When connecting to my university VPN via Network Manager's vpnc plugin I observe errors in syslog and the ifupdown script terminates abnormally.
The VPN does however appear to function correctly.

I confirm.
There is that last error about the dispatcher and I can somehow get the pid file to be written by creating the vpnc directory and changing its permissions.
