I am trying to setup a vpn connection in Ubuntu 10.04 to use the service from relakks.com
I used the network manager to add the vpn connection and the settings are:
Gateway: pptp.relakks.com
Username: user
Password: pwdIPv4 Settings: Automatic (VPN)
Advanced:
MSCHAP & MSCHAPv2 checked
Use point-to-point encryption (security:default)
Allow BSD data compression checked
Allow deflate data compression checked
Use TCP header compression checked
The connection always fail, here is the syslog:
