Public bug reported:
1. connect to vpn
2. close laptop lid so machine goes to sleep(?)
3. open laptop lid - notice that vpn is no longer connected
4. attempt to reconnect vpn
At this point, the nm dialog opens, and connects to the remote vpn host,
and offers the 'login' (password is saved).
I guess there is a timing issue, but often, after pressing the 'login'
button, there is a message that pops up saying the vpn connection has
failed; resulting in me having to attempt to reconnect again. It is
quite confusing and it seems like the login attempt has failed due to
something wrong, but it is probably only informing me that the vpn was
disconnected due to the machine going to sleep.
IMO, the displaying of the 'vpn disconnected' message should not cause
the attempt to reconnect to become invalid/cancelled. I don't mind
seeing the message, but it should not delay my attempt to reconnect and
should be followed by a 'connected' message.
