[Bug 913632] New: Temporary tun0, tun1, tun* connections aren't removed upon VPN disconnection by NetworkManager
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=913632 Bug ID: 913632 Summary: Temporary tun0, tun1, tun* connections aren't removed upon VPN disconnection by NetworkManager Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: All OS: openSUSE 13.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: nice@titanic.nyme.hu QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Like described by someone here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1494420 When connecting to a VPN connection using KDE's networkmanager applet, NetworkManager creates a new connection, named tun0 (or tun1, tun2, etc, if VPN connections are already established). This temporary(?) tun* connection isn't removed upon VPN disconnection, moreover, NetworkManager creates more "temporary" connections with the very same name, and after several times of using VPN connections, I will have tons of connactions named tun* and it's hard to find my deliberately created connections amongst them. However, I created a workaround for this problem by writing a script called /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/tun with the following contents: #!/bin/bash [[ ${1::3} == tun ]] && [[ $2 == down ]] && /usr/bin/nmcli connection delete $1 exit 0 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

why GNOME? This happens in KDE for me, but I think it might be a NetworkManager problem.
NetworkManager is maintained by the GNOME team. That's why GNOME. (it MIGHT be a the KDE frontend though - as I myself don't see the same happening on a GNOME install, also using NetworkManager) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
