[Bug 1677198] Re: OpenVPN not Working in 17.04 via "Import a saved VPN configuration"

[Jan-Åke Larsson]

I understand this is an upstream bug. I'll just write this here anyway,
will post bug upstream later if nobody beats me to it.

Affects me too. The imported config said aes-256-cbc. That was read in
as BF-something-or-other. Blowfish, not AES. After setting that to
AES-256-CBC, the thing connects.

After some time, the following happens:

nm-openvpn[3577]: [integrity] Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting
nm-openvpn[3577]: SIGUSR1[soft,ping-restart] received, process restarting
nm-openvpn[3577]: NOTE: the current --script-security setting may allow this configuration to call user-defined scripts

It seems that nm-openvpn fails. Ideas on what to do?
