OpenSUSE Network :: Creating PPTP VPN Connection In 11.3?
Dec 26, 2010
Since I completely switched to Opensuse11.3 From MS-Windows OS. The Problem I had is a PPTP VPN connection in windows, Which I used to connect Via a connection, The VPN provider gave me. Since these connection are for MS-Windows , I can't create a connection manually in Opensuse. I used , KDE control module/Network connection/VPN/add -> PPTP then I entered the host ip in NT DOMAIN field , my username, and password, and left all other options (including Gateway) the way it was. After that, every time I try to connect to this connection, NOTHING happens.

I've been using network-manager-pptp to create a PPTP VPN connection in my Ubuntu virtual machine for a while now, but I have constant problems with random disconnects. I don't know what the cause of the problem is, but I suspect that network-manager-pptp is not the most well-written piece of software around...
Is there another way of instantiating PPTP connections in a more robust manner? The same PPTP server works reasonably OK with Windows 7 (some disconnects, fewer than in Ubuntu, and Windows has an auto-reconnect feature).
I read some guides on using the pptp command, but they all seemed pretty low-level, messing around with ppp. I never found the time to figure out how it all was supposed to fit together. Has anyone accomplished what I'm trying and is willing to share the knowledge?
EDIT: Tried kvpnc, and it seems the stability is more or less the same as network-manager-pptp. The error message is "Modem hangup".
To clarify, I understand that the connection can go down, but I want to be able to reconnect automatically when disconnected.

I tried since yesterday to get a VPN-connection but it seems that until now I'm not able to reach the Company-network. Our company use the pptp connection. I tried many different setup's but without sucess. I use Ubuntu 9.10 and installed the pptp-manager.
Following settings:
Gateway (set)
Username (set)
MSCHAPv2 (check)
Point to point (check)
Stateful (check)
BSD (check)
Deflate (check)
TCP (check)
Below you find the result from the syslog, what can I do now?

since installing opensuse 11.2 KDE, is that I can connect to the local resources when I'm not connected via the pptp vpn to the Internet but as soon as I establish an Internet connection, I cannot. Under Windows and other distros I've tried, this has never been an issue, usually I can connect to either local or Internet resources, interchangeably. In a nutshell, I don't know how to troubleshoot this.

I have a problem with trying to connect to VPN over linux. From OSX and Windows the VPN connection goes through fine. It was working flawlessly, for the last one month I never used the laptop or the VPN, however after booting recently 1 week ago the VPN always show as timedout.

I'm unable to connect to a windows vpn connection using pptp this was working yesterday but for some strange reason it stopped working. My other vpn tunnels to cisco and so on are working great. I have the following log:
[Code]....
Nov 26 17:05:15 falx NetworkManager[1319]: <info> VPN service 'pptp' disappeared I have the latest updates, so that means that selinux was updated today. My selinux policy was enforcing but I changed it to disable and allready rebooted. Iḿ using Fedora 14 (I already regret for making the upgrade from 13, also have a problem with display drivers or something, but thats another story) does anyone encounter a problem like mine with pptp? can you share the solution if there is one?
Alexandre. Update: At the moment after connecting by Ethernet cable to my home network the connection wold be established but no address would work to the remote network, I've disconnected the cable and resumed using my wifi connection and the VPN connection is working again!! I don't have a clue about what just happened.. since itś working I need to get some work done and will provide more info on this matter if I found something new.

I setup a PPTP VPN connection in ubuntu 9.10 (x86_64) using NetworkManager. After enabling the VPN connection, I can browse web pages (it's perfect) but after a while the vpn connection is terminated! The following is my syslog after connecting and terminating:

I recently installed Kubuntu 10.10 on my machine, and I configured the PPTP VPN connection through which I connect to the internet. I can successfully connect, but it works really slowly. Slower than it does on Windows 7 on the same computer, with the same settings for the PPTP dialer. In about 20 minutes after I connect, the connection fails and even the modem restarts itself. I tried setting the MTU for the pptp connection to 1400 (I checked, and 1372 is the maximum value before the packets start to fragment + 28 bytes for the IP/ICMP headers), but nothing seems to help.

I have just managed to setup a small server were I run rtorrent through och VPN tunnel pptp based. When I start up my server without starting the tunnel it looks like this.
[Code]...
I guess that something happen with the VPN connection, assigned a new ip number maybe and that that made the change.

everything works fine, clients can connect to the vpn server with no problems and they can ping local machines! but no internet access through the vpn connection unless i uncheck the default gateway option on my client machine which is not what i want. I want my clients to get my server's ip address. my server is behind a router (router's ip : 192.168.0.1 | server's local ip: 192.168.0.100) so i used localip 192.168.0.100 & remoteip 192.168.0.234-238 in pptpd.conf. it think there is something wrong with routing or firewall rules, because it seems that the DNS resolution works .. when i try to browse a website my browser says "Waiting for xxxxx.com..." and it stays on that stage forever ! the funny part is that google.com works fine (don't know how).
p.s :
* I have already opened the port in on my router. I even tried it locally to make sure that the router is not the problem here. * already added ms-dns 208.67.222.222 / ms-dns 208.67.220.220 to pptpd-options. (found another guide that suggested to do this, before adding these two lines even dns resolution was not working.)

I can make a connection to the vpn server, the connection starts, but nothing happens! My IP address remains the same as previous! There is nothing added to my Knetworkmanager, I'm a beginner I should use a pcf file for my vpn connection. I use it properly, I'm sure because the connection starts and an icon is added to my panel and remains until I disconnect.
I checked it via ifconfig -a, the last part (which is for vpn) is:
Code:
tun0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00

I'm using Kubuntu 9.10, my pppd version is 2.4.5 and pptp is 1.7.2 I'm trying to connect to the iPredator VPN service, but I keep running into problems with LCP. I've tried using knetworkmanager, nm-applet, kvpnc and plain old text-based configuration to no avail. Here's a snippet of pppd's output:
[Code].....
(I've got "defaultroute" in my /etc/ppp/peers/ipred config file.) Any ideas what could be causing this? Could it even be my router? It claims to support PPTP, but considering it claims a lot of other things which aren't true, I wouldn't be surprised if it was the culprit.

I am using relakks.com VPN Service and set it up with gnome's default nm-manager interface. Everything is just perfect when I'm browsing the web. I can do it for hours and nothing happens. On the other hand, when I open up a torrent client - after 15 seconds to 2 minutes - I get a nice kick off the VPN.
It goes like this:
Code:
Sep 20 08:25:11 NPC pptp[3496]: nm-pptp-service-3490 warn[decaps_gre:pptp_gre.c:426]: discarding bogus packet 94236 (expecting 93663)

I managed to set up a PPTP VPN connection in Ubuntu 10.04, and it worked first time.This was about 3 months ago. It was working yesterday (Oct 05 2010), but when I came to log in to the VPN today it doesn't work. I tried the same VPN connection on my wife's laptop which runs Vista and it works. I have tried re-entering the details, even deleting and setting up from scratch via network manager. And yes I have the correct VPN plugins. what I should do. Is there a log file so I can have a look at it to see what the problem is. If there is where is it located. The computer is able to connect to the internet without any problems, just can't connect to the VPN. The only thing I can think of is that the update manager popped up this morning so a few things have got updated today. maybe something in there broke the VPN connection.

I am unable to make my VPN connection to my university work correctly. Before, it would work some of the time without changing any settings. Now it never works. Unfortunately my institution does not provide support to linux users (outrageous!) so I'm on my own. Here is a link to the configuration instructions for windows and mac users, I've tried to configure mine based on this information but I have not been able to do it.

Wondering if someone can lend some insight or point me in the right direction. I'm trying to use OpenSuSE 11.2 to host a master copy of a git repository. I'm guessing that I've still got a disconnect with xinet.d starting the git-daemon in response to a port 9418 request as I never see git show up as a process, even though I see in the message logs, the remote machine making the network request.

recently i rent a xen vps intended to setup a PPTPD vpn server for me and my friends. so we can by-pass the great firewall in china and get back on ....., facebook and stuff. i have already setup the server and i can connect to it without any problem. but i still want to do some further configuration the server:
1. i want to limit the bandwidth to 400k/s per connection.
2. i also want to limit the max connection per user a/c
i have some thoughts on the 2nd requirement. in the user configuration file of /etc/ppp/chap-secret, you can specify the range of ip the user can get, does it limit the max connection per user a/c? or they can connect anyway, just every now and then a box pop up says conflict in IP address?

i have a VPN server PPTPD on Centos 5.3
eth0: 62.2.2.x (public on the internet)
GW: 62.2.2.1 (cisco router)
i want to configure my ppptp server to allow users access internet with their own public ips of class 62.2.3.0 62.2.4.0 62.2.5.0
every time i configure my server all users can get thier IPs but they only go out with my server IP same as NAT not routing.
can you show me the proper configuration to make my users connect with public IP and have internet access. use specific DNS ( i did this but some users can not brows by DNS)
is there any way to specify an expired date for each pptp user.

I'm trying to connect to a Microsoft ISA PPTP server from my Linux box. The box I'm connecting from is itself a router. I have no problem connecting a Windows XP machine to the VPN via this machine. This is fine, but I would rather connect via the Linux machine, giving me far more advanced routing options (i.e. no to send every packet from the XP box completely unnecessarily via the PPTP tunnel). The Linux router is running Debian Lenny.
I've checked iptables. There were initially some issues. I've fixed those.
Invoking pppd from the console, I can see that authentication succeeds, but then some negotiation goes wrong and the server terminates the connection. Here's the output from pppd, with the more sensitive stuff removed:
Code:
<hostname>:~# pppd call <peer> nodetach debug
using channel 19
Using interface ppp0
Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2
sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0xe3e45f75> <pcomp> <accomp>]

I've not found how to configure more than one ip address with network manager.Nor with kde nor with plasmoid network manager.I need several virtual ip addresses for eth0 when the "default" of eth0 is connected i.e. "Connected to Auto eth0" should initialize the virtual interfaces.I have not found no even how to configure the ip address.I think this will be used from ifup config in yast or not?There I have the virtual interfaces but they are not taken from network manager.And last but no least: Is it possible that when using network manager the eth0 is enabled even no user has logged in?
