@Matt / @Per I'm assuming I can answer this as well. The IP address doesn't change, and I don't think this is the problem, there are several AP's available at my locations, hereby AP1 and AP2:
[Scenario 1] Connect to AP1 (192.168.1.105) Connect VPN (success) Disconnect VPN Connect VPN (fails) sudo killall NetworkManager -- nm auto-restarts Connects to AP1 (192.168.1.105) Connect VPN (success) [Scenario 2] Connect to AP1 (192.168.1.105) Connect VPN (success) Disconnect VPN Disconnect Wifi Connect to AP2 (141.213.114.155) Connect VPN (fails) sudo killall NetworkManager -- nm auto-restarts Connects to AP2 (141.213.114.155) Connect VPN (success) I have played with pretty much every mix of AP1 and AP2 I can think of, as well as mixing in suspend/resume cycles; the answer is fairly simple. Once NM has connected the VPN once, it will not connect successfully again under any set of circumstances until NM has been restarted. I will also note that my VPN passwords are saved in the keyring, looking at the credentials via NM editor or seahorse shows that they are present / accurate for both successful and unsuccessful attempts. -- vpnc will only connect successfully on first try per session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/475814 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
