Created attachment 1083045 [details] Log extract of VPN connection being dropped and restarted repeatedly Description of problem: When connecting to this openvpn, the connection continually drops and restarts every 10 to 20 seconds. This disrupts SSH attempts to the machines accessible through the VPN. The /var/log/messages file gets filled with the attempts, including messages such as: Oct 14 17:37:44 avillacis dbus[593]: [system] Rejected send message, 3 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.183" (uid=982 pid=16826 comm="/usr/libexec/nm-openvpn-service-openvpn-helper --t") interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.VPN.Plugin" member="SetConfig" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn" (uid=0 pid=16716 comm="/usr/libexec/nm-openvpn-service ") Oct 14 17:37:44 avillacis NetworkManager: (process:16826): nm-openvpn-WARNING **: Could not send configuration information: Rejected send message, 3 matched rules; And also: Oct 14 17:37:51 avillacis nm-openvpn[16743]: Connection reset, restarting [0] Oct 14 17:37:51 avillacis nm-openvpn[16743]: SIGUSR1[soft,connection-reset] received, process restarting Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openvpn-2.3.8-1.fc22.x86_64 NetworkManager-1.0.6-6.fc22.x86_64 NetworkManager-openvpn-1.0.6-3.fc22.x86_64 How reproducible: Always on selected connection Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Do you have SELinux enabled? $ sudo getenforce If so, please disable it and try again $ sudo setenforce 0 Have you modified D-Bus configuration in some way? Specifically, files /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-openvpn-service.conf and /etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.conf
Created attachment 1083310 [details] /var/log/audit/audit.log extract I see no weird messages in audit.log (extract attached). Setting "setenforcing 0" has no effect. The connection keeps being dropped and restarted.
I have not modified any dbus files under /etc. Just in case, I will post their contents.
