           Summary: VPN connection fails with Certificate Validation
                    Failure because attempt to reach wrong gateway

SUMMARY
My work VPN uses cisco. The gateway is something like
vpn.mycompany.com/employee.
My connection attempts works for a while. Eventually, when I am trying to
connect, I would get a message saying "Certificate Validation Failure".
Upon closer inspection (enabling the "View Log" checkbox) I can see that the
daemon is trying to reach vpn.mycompany.com, WITHOUT the /employee suffix.
Which of course is wrong.

Eventually, this line would show up in the log:
Server requested SSL client certificate; none was configured

See screenshots.

Although this VPN connection does not require any client certificate (well, at
least if targeting the /employee gateway).
