Network manager "no valid vpn secrets" error

view full story
linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I tried to setup a vpnc connection in network manager, but it just keeps saying "no valid vpn secrets". I read a few solutions that said to not provide a password, then when it asks for the password click cancel, then after that everything should work. I tried that but it never asked for the password at all. When I get the "no valid secrets" error, I had completely filled out the passwords section in the configuration. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks, Dave (HowTos)

PPTP VPN in Fedora11 3 years 43 weeks ago

I am trying to establish a VPN (PPTP) connection in FC11 to my work place.

However it is not working. I try to run it from GNOME, where I set it up in the network manager specifying: - VPN server address - user name - domain

Perhaps NetworkManager-vpnc and/or NetworkManager-pptp from EPEL. Note that if you see a message "No valid VPN secrets" a reboot may be required to get the VPN to work properly. [by pschaff]

Pppoe connection error. 32 weeks 6 days ago

Hi, I am using Fedora16.

The system recognizes the signal and asks me to input the network password, which matches; but when asked for the second password, the "nm connection editor", the password doesn't match. Isn't that password the same as the log on?

Hello, Everyone

Hide Secrets the best way !

Hide Secrets Pro, just launched provides a super cool interface with an ALL IN ONE features in it ....

Provides the following features in one app, which none of the other hiding apps provides in it, (not all to be precise)

1) Contacts, Call Logs 2) Messages 3) Protects you Application through password and many more 4) Images 5) Audio 6)

I want to avoid any password prompt from Ubuntu (12.04) network manager. I just want that the application works silently with the network and password that I gived to it and prompt for password just if I clicked on connect, but no automatically. The problem is that sometimes when the connection fails for any reason (bad signal for example), the network manager ask again for the password.

Hi,

I had a cisco vpn profile imported into network manager. It has enc_GroupPwd, after importing the Group password is empty and "Saved" selected in dropbox. Everything worked fine till today. Now it prompts to enter group password when I try to connect. I tried to reimport profile, didn't help. I still can connect with comman line vpnc-connect.

Hello. in XP, how do I map a network drive via command line so that it pops up a username/password dialog (with a "remember password" option), as you would if you went to "Tools->Map Network Drive..."? "net use e: \\server\share" seems to require the username password to be kept in plain text in the .bat file.
