[Bug 451533] [NEW] network-manager openvpn fails to connect

[Akagi]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager-openvpn

I want to use the NetworkManager applet with OpenVPN extension. Sadly
this did not work.

I manually created a client.conf for OpenVPN. It is quiet simple:

remote xyz
dev tun
ifconfig 10.8.0.2 10.8.0.1
secret home-net.key

openvpn client.conf work.

Now I imported these config file into the NetworkManagerOpenVPN plugin.
The imported data seems correct to me. But every time I try to start the
VPN connection I get the message, that the VPN connection cannot be
established.

I use

Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
Release:	9.04

Furthermore here an extract from the /var/log/daemon.log:
