Installing a PPTP Client in Fedora 10
December 29, 2008 2 Comments
The Network-Manager pptp client in F10 just wasn’t working for me. Nothing in the logs, not output….just nothing at all. The pptpconfig client is a far better solution – it’s available from : http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net. Unfortunately there are no installation documents available for F10 – it is easy to install though:
#rpm -Uvh http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/fc10/pptp-release-current.noarch.rpm
# yum –enablerepo=pptp-stable install pptpconfig
# pptpconfig
….enter the details of your PPTP account and connect. Add additional routes if required
Thanks for the useful instruction.
When I copied and past the command.
The yum command can be recognized since it was copied as single long dash – instead of two normal dash. May be just the browser problem. Edward
you save me guy!
thanks a lot!
