Using Ubuntu Karmic as an L2TP Client for VPN
- by James Lawrie
I'm trying to connect to a VPN service over L2TP using Karmic as a client and it's not working.
The only details I have are the remote IP address, username & password, and a shared secret string; this is enough for Windows but doesn't appear to be enough for Ubuntu.
I've tried using network-manager-vpnc and vpnc from the terminal to connect and I get "no supported authentication", and trying with OpenSwan it says "unable to identify either side of the connection".
I'd really appreciate some help here if anyone else has implemented this successfully.
