I was using kvpnc in ubuntu 9.04 jaunty. Looks like now ubuntu 9.10 ships with a vpn connection application and it supports cisco vpn as well. But when i try to add/import, i am seeing all the buttons in the VPN connections dialog is disabled. How to enable these buttons so that i can import my cisco vpn profile?

Looks like vpn manager doesnt ship by default.
 
Open a terminal and run the following apt-get and it will install and enable vpn buttons for you
 
sudo apt-get install network-manager-vpnc vpnc

  • This worked, but I had to restart network manager by logging in and out first.

    For a Microsoft VPN/PPTP server connection, you may want to install this:
    sudo apt-get install network-manager-pptp
