[Bug 964705] Re: System policy prevents modification of network settings for all users

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

My problem is a bit different: everything works fine, but the dialog
appears when we ACTIVATE a VPN connection, even if we don't want to
modify it.

1) I've prepared a VPN connection for my non-admin users and put it in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/vpn.nmconnection.
2) When they click to activate it, they get the "System policy prevents..." dialog.
3a) If I do enter the root password there, the vpn.nmconnection file isn't modified. Why did it ask for permission then?
3b) If the users cancel the dialog (twice), they're able to properly connect to the VPN. Why did it show up then?

That's on fully updated Ubuntu 20.04.4.
