Re: HOWTO: PPTP GUI (Connecting to a Windows VPN)
The PPTPCONFIG utility will not work correctly on Edgy.
So, what you have to do is:
1. Use the pptpconfig to create your initial pptp configuration and make sure you choose client-to-lan.
2. Create an executable script in /etc/pptp/ip-up.d/ which contains the routing information you need.
3. Use the commands sudo pon <vpn-name> and sudo poff <vpn-name> to get it working.
Here's an example of the script you'd want...
Code:
#!/bin/sh
if [ "${PPP_IPPARAM}" = "tunnelname" ]; then
route add -net 192.168.100.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0
# ...etc...
fi
It's irritating I know....
