There is no GUI client that I know of and any text configuration I try with pptpclient fails. How can I connect to a VPN, the fast way as in Windows, OS X and GNU/Linux. I have the following information (no internal IP's or ranges or NAT): Gateway - I have the URL to connect to, I suppose I can map it to IP Username Password MSCHAP MSCHAPv2 Use point-to-point encryption (MPPE) Allow BSD data compression Allow deflate data compression Use TCP header compression How can I connect to the VPN with just this information above? Everything I find requires internal IP's, ranges, NAT and other things making a 5 second gui configuration take months. The VPN server supports PPTP and L2TP as mentioned. Any advice on how I can connect will be helpful. -- Lyubomir Grigorov (bgalakazam)
