Hi, I just recently freshly installed FC14 on my laptop, and have been trying to get a PPTP VPN connection working, but am having significant difficulty. I've properly configured the VPN settings, and see the connection succeeds, but then shuts right back down. If I try the same credentials from within a Windows machine, it connects without fail. The following is the output from /var/log/messages: Apr 12 22:11:44 eric-laptop NetworkManager[1331]: <info> Starting VPN service 'pptp'... Apr 12 22:11:44 eric-laptop NetworkManager[1331]: <info> VPN service 'pptp' started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.pptp), PID 3518 Apr 12 22:11:44 eric-laptop NetworkManager[1331]: <info> VPN service 'pptp' appeared; activating connections Apr 12 22:11:44 eric-laptop NetworkManager[1331]: <info> VPN plugin state changed: 1 Apr 12 22:11:45 eric-laptop NetworkManager[1331]: <info> VPN plugin state changed: 3 Apr 12 22:11:45 eric-laptop NetworkManager[1331]: <info> VPN connection 'IA Firewall' (Connect) reply received.
