There is a box in the network connection for the
private key password but I
left it empty because vpnbook does not appear to supply the
password. I assumed it was not used. I do not know where to find it.
When I followed the vpnbook set up
advice on their website i was able to login without manually adding any extra
passwords. My problem stems from trying to login via a network
connection.
I have to ask: where do I get the private key password or is there
a way of telling the network
manager that it is not needed?

I am
wondering if I instead
should indicate
the server verification
method does
not
require
a private key password
and see what
happens, except
I do not know
how to do
this. I went
to the link
and did not
see any help
there.

This is what the syslog records when I try to access the

What have I misunderstood?
the first message came through OK.
The relevant part of the log file is
Error: private key password verification failed
this means you did not use the correct password for the private
key (or perhaps the 'button' did not ask for the password). If
you're using NetworkManager then there should be a popup for the
private key password.
