Description Jared Smith 2013-10-16 16:44:53 UTC 
Description of problem:

I installed the Alpha of F20, then attempted to connect to my work VPN.  (For the record, I simply copied the profile from /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ on my F19 installation to the F20 installation.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

NetworkManager-openvpn-0.9.8.2-3.fc20.x86_64
NetworkManager-0.9.9.0-14.git20131003.fc20.x86_64

How reproducible:

Very. :-)

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Copy a working /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ profile from a working F19 installation
2. Try to connect
3. See that it fails with an unspecified error

Actual results:

Failure (see sample logs below)

Expected results:

I would expect it to connect to the remote VPN

Additional info:

Here are the journal logs from the F20 system when attempting to connect:

Looks like this *might* be related to RHBZ#1013200, but I can't be sure, as their bug report doesn't include any logs.  Just adding that information here in case it's relevant.
