I don't have a VPN setup just yet - a mail was sent to my local lug list recently, and I might pick up some of those machines just so I can setup a minor network - couple of 486s and a couple of P1's... > There's also a load of unnecessary OpenVPN stuff in the PPTP config > dialogues that I need to clear out perhaps replacing them with the > pptp/ppp options that I've hard coded into the start_binary code for the > moment. > > I'm just trying to test it now. > > I've had difficulty compiling it though (had to bodge some stuff)... > it's this intltoolize stuff that Steev mentioned on the list a while > back (I like him am a Gentoo user): > > ------------------------------ > # autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --sys-confdir=/etc > ~snip~ > Running glib-gettextize...

Hope that helps, any other questions, let me know and I will double check, I am working 3:30pm - midnight CST until next Tuesday, and then I switch to 9:45am to 6:15pm CST. -- Steev _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
