Hey there guys - apologies for not posting earlier. My experience is that this has been fixed as of the new network manager in Intrepid.
I now have a manually configured IP on a wireless connection at work, and can use the network-manager-pptp package to create and use a VPN connection. You must have the network-manager-pptp package installed before you can create PPTP VPN connections obviously - but once that's there, it all works fine - for me anyhoo. -- cannot create VPN connection in case of manual configuration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145107 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
