Hi All,

I am switching from Fedora20 to CentOS7 since I now run all my Linux development in a VM and I get a more robust feature set (i.e. shared folders with the host that "just work", etc)

The only issue I have thus far is VPN connections. Looking at what's installed on my old Fedora install I suspect I need these packages:

kde-plasma-nm-vpnc kde-plasma-nm-openvpn NetworkManager-openvpn NetworkManager-vpnc

However none of these are available in CentOS7, Note I have the centos extras and the EPEL repos enabled. I suspect that I need rpmfusion but I don't see that rpmfusion has a repo for CentOS7...

The OpenVPN packages are in epel, and the vpnc packages are in the Nux Desktop repo.

NetworkManager-openvpn.x86_64 1:0.9.8.2-4.el7.1

          @epel

NetworkManager-vpnc.x86_64

1:0.9.9.0-6.git20140428.el7.nux nux-dextop

...

Anyone have any thoughts? Can I simply install the centos6 rpmfusion repo?

Nope. This would make bad things happen.

I've installed the following packages:

/# rpm -qa | egrep 'vpn|NetworkManager' NetworkManager-vpnc-0.9.9.0-6.git20140428.el7.nux.x86_64 NetworkManager-glib-0.9.9.1-28.git20140326.4dba720.el7_0.2.x86_64 NetworkManager-openvpn-0.9.8.2-4.el7.1.x86_64 vpnc-script-0.5.3-22.svn457.el7.noarch NetworkManager-0.9.9.1-28.git20140326.4dba720.el7_0.2.x86_64 openvpn-2.3.2-4.el7.x86_64 NetworkManager-tui-0.9.9.1-28.git20140326.4dba720.el7_0.2.x86_64 vpnc-0.5.3-22.svn457.el7.x86_64/

However if I click the KDE Network Manager and then click "Manage Connections" the manage connections dialog box / control module that comes up has the "Add" button greyed out for VPN connections

Anyone have any ideas how to enable the ability to add a VPN connection?

Thanks in advance

All;

Anyone have any thoughts, any assistance debugging this? I still cannot get a VPN connection in KDE...

Thanks in advance
