No window opened to ask the password. Should it? Any hints? The config file is like this: ... [vpn] service-type=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn tap-dev=yes ca=ca.crt connection-type=tls cert=client.crt key=client.password.key remote=IP.IP.IP.IP cert-pass-flags=2 [vpn-secrets] no-secret=true ... But if I use "cert-pass-flags=0" and enter the passphrase at NM, the VPN is established.
