Do I have to turn this off? Do I have to start my system, log in, start NetworkManager and let NetworkManager pull down an ip address via dhcp? Mark On 5/22/06, Vinay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, VPN Connections are grayed out till your Network Connection is not up. Is your Network Connection established through NetworkManager ? nm-applet shows you the list of VPN Connections you have configured ( All of them, Cisco, OpenVPN, NovellVPN .... ) and it is not a problem with Novell Extensions. Thanks.
