PPTP connection unavailable

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I also experience the same problem under same conditions.

I already tried reinstall network-manager-pptp & network-manager-pptp-gnome without success

Hi again,

I found a workaround:

Open Gnome-Shell Activities menu and search for Network Connections

Click on the "Add" button and select VPN on the list...

You're now good to add your VPN settings... when saved, the VPN connection appear into the Gnome-Shell to right panel functions.

Regards,

Hello !

Ok, it works.

But why it is not in the usual path ?

Best regards
