Description Ralf Jung 2011-03-22 18:25:21 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.5) 
OS:                Linux

KDE NetworkManager is unable to use a private key that is encrypted with a password: Instead of asking me for the password, I get this in the logfiles:

<warn> VPN connection 'VPN Name' (IP Config Get) timeout exceeded.
ERROR: could not read Private Key username/password/ok/string from management interface

This makes it impossible for me to use the OpenVPN module of network manager.

Reproducible: Always
