I've just had this today as well. I'm using xubuntu and had to kill/restart the nm-applet (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /network-manager-applet/+bug/1006141 - seems related to suspend/resume).
In my case, going into vpn->edit showed that the group password was marked as "saved" but was blank for one vpn. Another vpnc vpn entry was marked as saved but had the correct group password. Both prompt for group password on connect and fail without entering itii network-manager 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu7 amd64 network management framework (daemon and userspace tools) ii network-manager-gnome 0.9.6.2-0ubuntu5 amd64 network management framework (GNOME frontend) ii network-manager-openvpn 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu2 amd64 network management framework (OpenVPN plugin core) ii network-manager-openvpn-gnome 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu2 amd64 network management framework (OpenVPN plugin GNOME GUI) ii network-manager-pptp 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu1 amd64 network management framework (PPTP plugin core) ii network-manager-pptp-gnome 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu1 amd64 network management framework (PPTP plugin GNOME GUI) ii network-manager-vpnc 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu1 amd64 network management framework (VPNC plugin core) ii network-manager-vpnc-gnome 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu1 amd64 network management framework (VPNC plugin GNOME GUI) ii openvpn 2.2.1-8ubuntu1 amd64 virtual private network daemon ii vpnc 0.5.3r512-2ubuntu1 amd64 Cisco-compatible VPN client ii libnm-glib-vpn1 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu7 amd64 network management framework (GLib VPN shared library) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1043043 Title: Prompts for both the user and group passwords even though group password has been saved To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1043043/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
