[ Test Plan ] Plan 1: * Save an OpenVPN connection which requires MFA through the GNOME network settings panel, and perform the initial connection. * Provide the MFA code when requested. * Disconnect and try reconnecting to the saved OpenVPN preset. * The saved preset should only require re-entering an MFA code to work; the saved password should be correct. Plan 2: * Save an OpenVPN connection that does not require MFA through the GNOME network settings panel, and perform the initial connection. * Disconnect and try reconnecting to the saved OpenVPN preset. * The saved preset should work without requiring any further interaction. [ Where problems could occur ] * The patch for this issue modifies how authentication for OpenVPN connections are performed, so test plan #2 should be performed to ensure connections without MFA still work as expected. [ Other Info ] * Issue against main project: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/97 * Upstream issue: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/NetworkManager-openvpn/-/issues/12 * Upstream fix: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/NetworkManager-openvpn/-/commit/a6da86f9007ec7b324148f4e3492d68c9a03a4c5 [ Original Description ] I added a VPN connection through Gnome settings. I configured the user and password. Once I try to connect, as I've already set the user and password, I'm only asked to inform the authentication code, as the VPN has MFA enabled. After I inform the authentication code, I'm able to connect to the VPN. If I disconnect and try to connect again, the authentication code was saved as if it was the password, so my authentication fails and I have to inform my password first, then after that I'm asked for the authentication code. The authentication code is being saved as the password, which shouldn't happen. Everything works but it's pretty annoying having to do that every time. I have another machine running Debian Trixie, which used to have the network-manager-openvpn in the same version and it used to happen the same thing. Now that it's updated to network-manager-openvpn (1.12.0-1) this issue is gone, probably fixed. doug@bolado:~$ lsb_release -rd No LSB modules are available.
