I can connect to the VPN from my windows laptop. Here are some of the informations:
Device Name: WAN Miniport (PPTP)
Device Type: vpn
Authentication: MS CHAP V2
Encryption: MPPE 128
Compression: MPPC
PPP multilink framing: On
NAP State: Not NAP-capable
I hope someone can tell me what is wrong with my configuration.

Can you post your /etc/ppp/options.pptp and /etc/ppp/peers/<vpn> (please leave out the name and pty line, thats personal info)
Can you also post | Code: | | emerge -vp pptpclient ppp |

actually i figured it out and got it to work. i ended up following the config settings here:
http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-gentoo.phtml
and when I did `pon vpn`, the ppp connection came on. Now I just need to link it to /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 somehow because the gentoo wiki version does not work.

Here is my setup
/etc/conf.d/net
| Code: | # lan config
config_eth0="dhcp"
# pptp config
config_ppp0="ppp"
pppd_ppp0="persist call <ppp peer name>"
link_ppp0="pty \"<vpn gateway> --loglevel 0 --logstring PPtP --nolaunchpppd\""
postup(){
if [[ ${IFACE} = ppp0 ]]; then
route add default ppp0
fi
return 0;
}
|
The you just need to symlink /etc/init.d/net.lo to /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 and it should work. |

thank you, that config worked perfectly 
someone should update the wiki.
another question now, is there a GUI that manages network connections instead of manually doing /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 start/stop? or is there a gui for all the init services in general?
