Hi all,
I've started using the NetworkManager vpnc plugin to open connections to my company network.
It looks like i can get it to work, with one slight annoyance: I can't get NetworkManager to ask me for the username when i connect. There seems to be no option for that in the interface AFAICT.
I need it to ask for a username because i need to use my SecurID token there. I.e. the username is different every time.
What i do now, is edit the connection every time and put in my username, and then connect. Is there a better way to do this?
I'm running Karmic, b.t.w.
Thanks in advance.
