I'm afraid I can't explain what's wrong in your case, but I just wanted
to note this isn't the same for me. I have a connection to Red Hat's
internal VPN (which is the same type, it works from the command line
with vpnc) set up in NetworkManager. It works fine. At first I had it
set up similar to how you do - all configuration settings default - then
I set it to "Use this connection only for resources on its network".
Either way, it works fine. This is on latest Rawhide.
