I've got a Fedora 27 desktop that has a slight network problem.
I'm using VPN and I used nm-connection-editor to configure it so that
the VPN activates when eno1 activates. That worked fine in Fedora 26.
But after upgrade to Fedora 27 the network doesn't start properly at
startup, instead after I log in to gnome desktop I use the tools in top
right corner to Turn On Wired Connection and that brings up both eno1
and VPN just fine.
Any suggestion how to make it work at startup?
You've said you have things set to activate a VPN connection for the ethernet
interface, yes?
What type of VPN are you using? I don't have my VPN activated automatically. But
when it comes to OpenVPN there are 2 choices for saving the password. Either for one
user and encrypted or for all users and un-encrypted. I would think that for the VPN
to be activated without your having logged-in it would have to have been saved
un-encrypted for all users.
I just tested it on a VPN and unless I have the PW saved for all the interface will
not come up on boot.
