I have a similar problem where under Gnome(gusty) I have a VPN
connection setup using X509 key and a password. This works fine in Gnome
, but when I try in KDE it just won't connect. Knetwork-manager does not
ask for the password.

This is similar to bug #132060 however I have no problems using VPN and
Gnome.

>From syslog I have the following

Under Gnome.

Under KDE

There is a slight difference, Gnome has "servercert-insecure" and KDE
does not.
