Version: (using KDE 4.4.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Mandriva RPMs My VPNC gateway is using one time password so I cannot store user password permanently in connection settings and have to enter it every time. I created VPNC connection using knetworkmanager but it never asks for password; of course connection attempt always fails.
I can see the same problem in kde 4.4.2 using knetworkmanager-0.9-0.17.20100310.fc13.x86_64 After I set up vpnc and click on it in the knetworkmanager menu nothing happens. Nothing at all, not even asked for password. I left user passphrase "always ask" because our vpn uses rsa token generated passwords changing every minute, so it's not possible to store that password

Suggested patch in bug 244416. The reason it happens - VPN layer in knetworkmanager always saves secrets in kwallet; for secret with ALWAYS_ASK property it saves empty value. On connection it checks only whether *anything* was saved in kwallet, not whether individual secrets do have values.
