https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1227710 Bug ID: 1227710 Summary: NetworkManager-openvpn must use --data-ciphers for OpenVPN >= 2.6 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other URL: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/NetworkManager-openvpn/ -/issues/97 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: screening-team-bugs@suse.de Reporter: adrian.glaubitz@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Target Milestone: --- Found By: --- Blocker: --- Recently, one of my OpenVPN connections stopped working with every connection attempt timing out. After some debugging and research, I figured out that the reason is that OpenVPN 2.6 deprecated the "--cipher" option and replaced it with "--data-ciphers". There is an upstream bug report which tracks the issue:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/NetworkManager-openvpn/-/issues/97
While there have been changes made to the code to address this issue,
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/NetworkManager-openvpn/-/commit/963b71a83ee18... https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/NetworkManager-openvpn/-/commit/020ab0c4b872f...
the issue doesn't seem to be resolved yet as my own experiences and the comments of other users in the above upstream bug report suggest. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
