[Bug 360818] Re: NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets

[Michael]

"Me too".  Karmic beta, fully up-to-date.  Trying to connect using
network-manager-vpnc, the message is that the "VPN service stopped
unexpectedly".

I installed yesterday, and yesterday a reboot fixed the problem.  From
yesterday, I have a number of messages in auth.log as follows:

{{{
Oct  6 15:51:13 michael-laptop dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.4" (uid=0 pid=986 comm="NetworkManager) interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.VPN.Plugin" member="NeedSecrets" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc" (uid=0 pid=2858 comm="/usr/lib/network-manager-vpnc/nm-vpnc-service))

}}}

Today I am unable to connect with the same bubble message, but nothing
in auth.log.  Today, I have messages in daemon.log like the following:

{{{

Oct  7 11:41:59 michael-laptop NetworkManager: <info>  VPN service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc' did not start in time, cancelling connections
}}}

I couldn't find any root shells, and the at_console thing didn't help
either.  I got messages like the above both before and after applying
the at_console patch and rebooting.
