There firewall is ok. But I found that something got messed up when trying to
connect to the VPN from inside our office. The VPN should be used outside the
office of course, but I just wanted to test it. I don't know why, but it
started working after doing "apt purge --auto-remove network-manage
Douglas, you solution worked fine for this VPN. Thank you! Now I will
continue on my office VPN (this was a third party VPN) that is even
stranger. Here I can connect when I'm at my office, but not from the
outside. Strange that L2TP is so hard to get up and running. Anyway,
thank you for your help
I use 1.3.12 of xl2tpd and I cannot see any logs about "udp_xmit" in my log
file.
I have attached my log file where I replaced my vpn server IP.
The same VPN works fine from my other computer with Ubuntu 16.04. This computer
is upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04.

Public bug reported:
Since upgrading to Ubuntu 18.04 I can no longer connect to L2TP VPNs. I
have tried building 1.3.12 of xl2tpd since I read reports about problems
with kernel 4.15 and the original xl2tpd, but that didn't help.
I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and using network-manager-l2tp version
Public bug reported:
My upgrade from Ubuntu 14.04 to 15.10 hanged and I had to hard reset the
computer. After reboot I count't even get the GUI starting, but after
some Googling I did "sudo dpkg --configure -a" that seemed to resolv
most things. This issue still occur though.
