By searching the web, I found openfortigui issue [#194], which mentions the new option --pppd-accept-remote that has to be used with openfortvpn, when ppp version >= 2.5.0 ... [#194]: <https://github.com/theinvisible/openfortigui/issues/194> I actually added pppd-accept-remote = true to my /etc/openfortivpn/MYNETWORK and now openfortivpn works again (with ppp/2.5.0-1+2). I am therefore lowering the severity of this bug report. I am not closing it, though, since I believe that such an important behavior change (the need to add an option, if ppp version >= 2.5.0) should really be communicated to the users of the openfortivpn Debian package users. Maybe a NEWS.Debian file in /usr/share/doc/openfortivpn could be added to document this new need? I really believe that users should be warned about this! -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/ There's not a second to spare! To the laboratory! .....................................................
