I don't see what Gnome has to do with a VPN server, but at a minimum
you might want to say which specific VPN system you're talking about.

Having a similar problem with my *openconnect* VPN sessions (in a
gnome session): the username won't be saved, but the password is saved.
I am potentially having a similar problem with Openvpn which I have to
use for my vpn service as the vendor doesn't provide a linux client, but
instead provide instructions on how to set up Openvpn under linux to
connect. The instructions are aimed at Ubuntu, but most of it applied to
Fedora as well.
I set up my wireless network and vpn connection under networkmanager in
Plasma where they are both working quite happily. What I am not sure of
at the moment is whether even though the password fields show the normal
mask character, the password is actually stored in the networkmanager
definition or in Kwallet. If I logout of Plasma and log into Gnome,
networkmanager can see both network definitions but neither is
connected. If I manually connect to the wireless networkmanager
definition I am prompted for the wireless password, which when supplied
the connection takes place. If I manually connect the vpn networkmanager
definition I get prompted for the vpn password, which I haven't supplied
as I have to look up emails to find it.
I would have expected that if you set up networkmanager definitions
under any desktop they would work across all desktops, as I would have
expected networkmanager to have the same functionality across all desktops.
