I don't agree with the priority assignment either. It took about an hour of fooling around and google'ing before I found this bug report.
I actually did the following: 0) start box with network interface in "roaming mode" 1) Swap from "Roaming" to manual (static IP). 2) configured VPN 3) *used* it from the network manager context menu (while in static IP mode). 4) did a bunch of work. 5) shut-down It wasn't until I rebooted the machine that the context menus for the VPN stuff disappeared and all I got was the "manual configuration". And has anyone figured out the difference between "roaming" mode and DHCP enabled mode? Anyway, not being able to VPN in to work without plowing through command line PPTP configuration how-to's put me within an inch of going back to some other OS.... -- 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
