By using MPPE encryption in NetworkManager, PAP CHAP and EAP are automatically grayed out leaving only MSCHAP and MSCHAPv2 active. This configuration does not work returning the error message PPTP service has stopped that everyone here is facing.
A workaround that works for me is to deactivate MSCHAP as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pptp-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259698 Title: pptp vpn service stops unexpectedly Status in pptp-linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: pptp-linux Using ubuntu 8.10 x86. pptp-linux version 1.7.2-1 When I select the vpn option, I can create the VPN configuration, but after trying to connect for around ~1 second, I get the popup error: "The VPN connection 'Warwick' failed because the VPN service stopped unexpectedly."
