The error message is the same if I choose 'Ask for group password' and do not give a group password when start the connection.

Thanks for the bug report, and I'm sorry we didn't manage to get to it yet. A lot has chanced since the issue was reported, in both Plasma and the networking and authentication stacks in general; can I ask you to see if it's still happening in Plasma 6.3.5 or later with Frameworks 6.14 or later? Thanks a lot!
