I have a Ubuntu (11.04) client myself. Importing the .ovpn file in ubuntu is no problem at all. In the network manager of ubuntu you can choose for: 'import'
In kubuntu (11.04) however this import feature is not available. Now I am struggling with configuring the client in kubuntu.
I am getting this at the end of connecting:
Note: cannot ioctl TUNSETIFF tap: Operation not permitted (errno=1)
Note Attempting fallback to kernel 2.2. TUN/TAP interface
Cannot allocate TUN/TAP dev dynamicly
