Somewhere in this thread, I saw a ppa to download a fixed version of
network manager. This didn't work for me, as the PPA is 404. I really
need a fix, VPN access is critical

Title:
  Network Manager fails to connect to VPN (AnyConnect) - [vpn-mana ger
  /nm-vpn-connection.c:1770] get_secrets_cb(): Failed to request VPN
  secrets #2 : (6) No agents were available for this request

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Installed vpnc
  established vpn connection successfully
  after restart, the vpn connection cannot be established any more

  mbr NetworkManager[17397]: <error> [1441285066.578727] [vpn-mana
  ger/nm-vpn-connection.c:1770] get_secrets_cb(): Failed to request VPN secrets #2
  : (6) No agents were available for this request.

  Workaround:

  rm .gconf/apps/nm-applet
  logout/login
  connect to VPN works

  This surely cannot be a normal procedure
