Unable to connect with PPTP (From Windows 8 to Ubuntu 12.10)
- by jaja
I'm trying to connect using PPTP to my VPS.
At first, I got the problem that my connection (Wlan, which is what I use to connect to the Internet) goes "limited" (I can't connect to the Internet) when I connect to the VPN.
Then, I used to get some long message, something like you might be trying using L2TP.
Then now it's back again to the "limited" problem.
What's the solution to that problem?
One thing I'm not sure of is what I put as my local IP address in "sudo nano /etc/pptpd.conf" Is it 127.0.0.1?
I'm following this tutorial: http://thesinclairs.gotdns.com/blog/set-up-a-pptp-vpn-on-ubuntu-server/
