Version: 0.9.3 (using KDE 4.3.4) OS: Linux Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages I am able to connect with openvpn but kvpnc does not determine it is connected.
This was reported earlier at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=546826
This should be fixed in current svn. Can you try it?
Hi, I have tried current 0.9.5 and then current kde4 svn trunk revision 1098555 No luck, still showing yellow light and 'Connecting' status. The VPN itself connected fine and was operational.
changing to unconfirmed
Can you provide more information? The log from kvpn debug console (kvpnc debug level: 6) is really helpul. Which openvpn version you are using?
KDE: 4.7.4 kvpnc: 0.9.6 openvpn: 2.2.0 On Ubuntu 11.10 --- Hi, I'm experiencing the same issue. The VPN connects and is operational, but shows a yellow square and 'Connecting...' message. If you need details about the server or client conf just let me know, but both are very close to the template configuration files updated for my specific keys/certs/ip addresses. Here's the debug console output with debug level = 6: debug: openvpn: /usr/sbin/openvpn debug: Support for TUN/TAP found (compiled into kernel or kernel module already loaded). debug: Default interface: "tun0". debug: IP address of default interface: "10.8.0.6". info: Trying to connect to server "<ip hidden>" with ... debug: Setting DNS_UPDATE "Yes". debug: Starting Openvpn management handler... error: OpenvpnManagementHandler: Connection refused debug: [openvpn] Sat Feb 4 11:42:55 2012 NOTE: OpenVPN 2.1 requires '--script-security 2' or higher to call user-defined scripts or executables debug: [openvpn] error: OpenvpnManagementHandler: Got no greeting within 3 seconds from management interface, retrying. debug: [openvpn] Sat Feb 4 11:43:05 2012 WARNING: External program may not be called unless '--script-security 2' or higher is enabled.

Created attachment 72138 [details] Correct version comparison thinko There's a thinko in the code that compares openvpn revisions. Basically, the script-security parameter is applied in openvpn-2.1 (correctly), but not anymore in openvpn-2.2 (incorrect). Fixed by attached patch. Greetings from Gentoo Linux :)
I tested the patch and it works, thanks!
Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
