At that point in time PPTP didn't even support import. Closing as
Invalid.

In newer releases we've implemented this, and AFAICT it seems to work
properly.

If you're still running into such an issue please file a new bug report,
since it's most likely not the same behavior, error messages, or
configuration at all. Thanks!

Title:
  NetworkManager 0.7 Import function does not recognize VPN
  configuration information exported from earlier versions of NM

Status in NetworkManager:
  Invalid
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  Intrepid,
  network-manager: 0.7~~svn20080818t061112+eni0-0ubuntu1

  I have a VPN configuration file exported earlier in NM0.6, when I
  successfully configured my VPN connection via PPTP.

  When I tried to import it in the current NM, I got error: 
  ===
  Cannot import VPN connection

  The file 'Campus.pcf' could not be read or does not contain recognized
  VPN connection information

  Error: unknown PPTP file extension.
  ===

  After changing an extension to .conf (which is used in the NM 0.7 Export 
function) I got another error:
  ===
  Cannot import VPN connection

  The file 'Campus.conf' could not be read or does not contain
  recognized VPN connection information

  Error: unknown error.
  ===

  Expected behavior:
  The configuration file recognized and Imported, VPN configuration is ready 
for use.
