Description ray-ven 2011-06-22 20:20:10 UTC
Version:           0.9 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

I can't expect users to use difficult workarounds to get ca, cert, key pam files 

Workaround:
#!/bin/bash

P12FILE=${1##*/}
NAME=${P12FILE%%.*}  

openssl pkcs12 -nocerts -in $P12FILE -out ${NAME}_key.pem
openssl pkcs12 -nokeys -clcerts -in $P12FILE -out ${NAME}_cert.pem
openssl pkcs12 -nokeys -cacerts -in $P12FILE -out ${NAME}_ca.pem 


Reproducible: Didn't try

As far as I know no Plasma NM developer has access to an openvpn server, I for example only have access to VPNC. I do not even know how openvpn works, which settings are required, which are optional, how to handle the certificate files, etc. If you know how to fix this problem please give us the steps as succint as possible because we won't be able to test the fix ourselves.
