Description Tom Tromey 2008-08-20 14:32:26 UTC 
Today I changed my VPN password.

First, I wish NM automatically noticed that my old password was invalid.

Meanwhile, I used seahorse to delete my old VPN passwords.
Then I tried to connect to the VPN.  NM seemed to try the old
password.

I was surprised to find that there was any caching going on.

Also, I expected NM to notice that my passwords had been removed,
and to ask me to enter new ones.

Restarting NM worked around the problem.

Probably dupe of bug #429287 ?
