Bug Description

It would be great if the networkmanager-vpnc would ask for a username when i connect.

I use a laptop with other people and every person has a differtent vpn login, but we all use the same gnome-account on the system.

Can you include an "ask for userername" option, please?

Wishlist/Triaged. The request is obviously not a bug but a feature request; which we might tackle for the next release since it should be simple enough.

That said, why not use different user accounts on the system, and VPN connections that are per-user? That way the username would definitely be set for each different VPN connection.
