Hi All,

* Starting virtual private network daemon(s)...
* Starting VPN 'CLIENT1'
Timed out
and in the processlist I found, the "systemd-
but there is no popup or other password ask dialog

Ubuntu does not yet install a systemd- ask-password agent. It seems openvpn went too much ahead and is relying on this without checking whether a password agent is running.
