But why have yet another application taking up yet more system tray space to do what NM should be doing itself? IMHO, a completely different application for managing only l2tp-ipsec VPNs when we already have a VPN managing application is the completely wrong approach.
This ticket is about this functionality missing in NM, not about promoting yet another application to do what NM should be doing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264691 Title: NM 0.7 No option for connecting to L2TP IPSEC VPN Status in NetworkManager: Confirmed Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “network-manager” package in Debian: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: network-manager Missing feature: You cannot connect to a (Microsoft) L2TP IPSEC VPN with Network Manager.
