Not working for me at all. I have a PPTP VPN server at home running on a linux 12.04 server.
Connecting to this server works like a charm from Android phones/tablets, I-phone (IOS versions before they stopped supporting PPTP), and win10. I use this primarily to get IP adress from my home country when needed. Anyway, my first issue was after installing Ubuntu 17.10 on a PC. Experienced all the above mentioned issues, except that whatever I try to do with "Store password for all users" does not help. Ended up setting up the VPN connection from command-line using the following tutorial: https://help.my-private- network.co.uk/support/solutions/articles/8452-pptp-vpn-setup-on-linux- ubuntu-via-terminal-command-line Now I actually get connected to my server using pon <mynetworkname>, but DNS does not work. I can open webpages typing in ip-address directly, and when I run traceroute, traffic appears to be going through my home network. In /etc/ppp/ the 2 nameservers I have configured on server appears in resolv.conf Any idea before I go mad? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1718931 Title: No VPN autoconnect Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When setting up VPN to auto connect with wifi (done through nm- connection-editor) the wifi never manages to connect.
