It (NetworkManager-pptp-0.7.0-2.svn16.el5) is still in -testing repository though. Please try: "yum --enablerepo=epel-testing install NetworkManager-openvpn" It only hit testing today, though it has been built for some days now, so in case it's not on your mirror yet you can download it from here: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/testing/5Server/
Thanks for your feedback, Alexander. Closing.
