Please attach the NM log. Usually when you click on a connection and nothing happens is because NM invalidated the connection for some reason. Looking in the log helps to figure out what reason is that. (In reply to comment #1) Nov 22 18:16:46 netadmin NetworkManager[1585]: <info> Starting VPN service 'vpnc'...

Nov 22 18:16:52 netadmin NetworkManager[1585]: <info> VPN service 'vpnc' disappeared It looks like a problem in vpnc itself. Last time I debugged vpnc I had to recompile the networkmanager-vpnc plugin to pass the debug parameter to vpnc. That will make things complicated to debug since I do not have access to your vpn server. Anyway, I am very busy these days, I will try to look at this next weekend. By the way, yesterday I commited a change to show vpn error message in the "Connection failed" notification. At least now you receive a feedback when a error occurs. It seems vpnc refuses to activate a connection that lacks the user authentication info: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=531876 Even Kvpnc refuses to create a connection without that info. Can I close this bug as upstream? Git commit 687a98c69f54654990be41d0b8007614fbac9481 by Lamarque V. Souza. Committed on 26/11/2011 at 23:02. Pushed by lvsouza into branch 'master'. Refuses to create VPNC connections without user or group info. vpnc-0.5.3 refuses to connect without those info: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=531876 When it supports that configuration we can remove this validation check.
