Created attachment 315972 [details] log of failures Description of problem: The plugin fails to establish a connection that is known to be working. I can successfully establish a connection with pptp-config Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.7.0-0.10.svn4027.fc10.i386 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Setup VPN with NetworkManager 2. Attempt to establish VPN Actual results: Connection fails Expected results: Connection is established, routes are added Additional info: pacakges of possible relevance: NetworkManager-pptp-0.7.0-0.10.svn4027.fc10.i386 pptp-1.7.2-3.fc10.i386 pptp-release-4-2.fc9.noarch pptpconfig-20060821-1.fc9.noarch everything should be up-to-date as of rawhide 2008-09-06. I have attached seemingly relevant portions of /var/log/messages showing: 18:13 - I tried to connect using NetworkManager and failed 18:18 - I tried pptp-client and succeeded 18:29 - I tried NetworkManager again, this time with MPPE on (which I had forgotten the first time) and failed Mailing list threads which precede this: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-August/msg01419.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-September/msg00007.html
I have not yet verified if kNetworkManager-pptp works or not mostly as I am uncertain as to how I would switch between the two applets.
Please test with the latest rawhide NetworkManager-pptp - bugs were fixed in this area.
Created attachment 322746 [details] log of failure with NetworkManager-pptp and success with pptpconfig On fully updated (as of 7 hours prior to this posting) rawhide machine, all attempt to connect to pptp VPN via NetworkManager-ptp-0.7.0-0.12.svn4229.fc10.i386 Slightly sanitized and annotated /var/log/messages attached (messages-200811060346.log)
download the latest pptp from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=33063&package_id=25151&release_id=599125 and it seems to work. i had the same issue as you. the version included (1.7.1) in fedora does not seem to work with networkmanager.1.7.2 works wonders.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

A few things now that I am on F10. 1) the PPTP plugin works (for me) 2) if I enter a route and tell it to only use my routes, the connection dies in less than 5 minutes and never actually works (it could be me not adding my route properly but I was able to figure it otu for pptp-config) 3) I am select EAP and connection dies and makes no suggestions even if viewing the log makes EAP the most likely candidate 4) The applet doesn't really give a notification when the VPN becomes active 5) Is there any consideration towards giving NM its own /var/log file PPPD seems to throw quite a bit of syslog output, which I don't mind, just that I may want to find something else in that log easily. My only priority is the routes as this particular VPN connection will only route HTTP directed outside its network, so all my other connections die. Plus I don't want to send all my traffic through the VPN.
Should I close this?
Created attachment 367981 [details] failed VPN connection, /var/log/messages NetworkManager-pptp worked for awhile and then stopped again
Works for me as of today.
