gnome 3, network manager: how to transfer vpn settings from laptop to pc

two days ago i have upgraded from fedora 14 to fedora 15 and had the problem that i need to transfer the vpn settings from my pc to my laptop without transcribe. after some search i found that the settings are stored into /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections.

to transfer the settings you need to copy the files to the same destination on another workstation/laptop and IMPORTANT to change the entry permissions under connection when the username differ eg:

[connection]

permissions=<groupname>:<username>:;
