What should have happened instead: 3. there should be an "import OpenVPN profile" button on the "new VPN" dialog Prior to Unity, the gnome network manager had an "import VPN" button which allowed importing configuration files for OpenVPN and Cisco. The new Unity network manager has removed that button and not replaced it with anything. The only workaround is to install the old Gnome network manager, launch it from the command line, and use it to import the VPN profile.
