Can't connect VPN/add new VPN connection on 12.04 when using NX
- by dbotamous
I remote control my Ubuntu box using NX. I am trying to create a new VPN connection. I click on
Configure VPN ? Add ? OpenVPN ? Create
then I get a "Editing VPN connection 1" window but everything is grayed out, and I can't edit it. The only button I can click is Cancel.
The reason I bring up NX is because if I plug in a monitor keyboard and mouse, I can create, edit import VPN connections just fine. So I imported all the different VPN connections, everything was fine.
I then remoted back into the Ubuntu machine with NX, click on my VPN connection, and get
VPN Connection Failed - The VPN CONNECTION failed to start. Not authorized to control networking.
I then disconnected and reconnected NX, and now all the VPN connections I had imported are gone.
Any ideas?
