[Bug 299378] [NEW] network manager vpn dhcp error

[Erki Hallingu]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager-openvpn

When starting openvpn connection it connects ok, but after about 10
seconds it starts to query for ip address via dhcp and consequently
loses it's ip address which it got from openvpn server.

Also it creates under the wired connection tab "Auto tap0" connection
which has dhcp selected. It seems that this is the source of this
problem.

It also happens when starting openvpn connection manually not from nm-
applet.

As a result it is not possible to use network manager with openvpn. I'm
only able to connect to openvpn by inserting eth0 and tap0 interfaces
into /etc/netwok/interfaces file.
