Title: Add hybrid-auth to KNetworkManager/vpnc 
  
openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed
Priority 
    Requester: Important 
 
Requested by: Sascha Eichenauer (supertimorplusfort) 
 
Description: 
A lot of CISCO VPN's today use hybrid-authentication. Unlike 
gnome-NetworkManager, KNetworkManager does not support hybrid-auth. Sure, it's 
not a big deal to connect via cli (when you have an ssl-enabled vpnc installed) 
but hybrid-auth integration into KNetworkmanager would make openSUSE and KDE 
much more attractive to university students and staff, for example.

There's a bug report in KDE's bug tracker 
(https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219118) which seems to be worked on. The 
gnomes were faster, they already have a patch 
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=495893) . I'd really appreciate 
seeing hybrid-auth capability in KNetworkManager. Maybe someone with 
programming skills and the desire for hybrid-auth can do something. Thanks for 
listening!
