Updated to F15: NetworkManager crashes parsing VPN keyfile

I just did a yum upgrade from F13 to F14 to F15. According to /var/log/messages NetworkManager crashes trying to parse a VPN keyfile:

Code:
NetworkManager[2519]:    ifcfg-rh: parsing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 ...
NetworkManager[2519]:    ifcfg-rh:    read connection 'System eth0'
NetworkManager[2519]:    keyfile: parsing VPN Connection UDP ...
NetworkManager[2519]: <warn> caught signal 11. Generating backtrace ...
I'd like to remove this VPN config in hopes that NM can init and run, but I cannot figure out where this configuration is stored.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Re: Updated to F15: NetworkManager crashes parsing VPN keyfile

Same problem here... it also crashes when parsing some wifi config files, but I can delete them easily in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcg-xxxxxx

Ok.. found them: take a look in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/
Bye!

[SOLVED] Re: Updated to F15: NetworkManager crashes parsing VPN keyfile

Thanks for the pointer! Sure enough, deleting the VPN connection from /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ allowed NM to start.

Now I just have to figure out why the VPN config that worked in F13 is crashing this version of NM. Fun! ;-)

Thanks again!

If you realy need VPN you can try with vpnc from terminal.
I had the same problems, now I use vpnc and everything works fine
