basic openVPN with pre-shared key crashed

["Frank Cornelis" <fcorneli telenet be>]

Hi,


I've setup a very simple openvpn construction. At the client I can do:
openvpn --remote 192.168.1.94 --dev tun --ifconfig 192.168.2.2 192.168.2.1 --secret openvpn.key
and afterwards I can ping 192.168.2.1 as shown the openvpn manual page.
Now I'm trying to do the same via the NetworkManager. But when doing so I receive:

Nov  8 21:12:28 localhost NetworkManager: <information> Will activate VPN connection 'Home Network', service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn', user_name 'fcorneli', vpn_data 'connection-type / shared-key / dev / tun / remote / 192.168.1.94 / proto / udp / ca /  / cert /  / key /  / comp-lzo / no / shared-key / /home/fcorneli/personal/openvpn.key / local-ip / 192.168.2.2 / remote-ip / 192.168.2.1 / username / ', route ''.
