    l2tp vpn

    i see how to use vpn with bt5r3

    open the terminal and run below commands
    apt-get install network-manager-gnome
    cp /etc/network/interfaces{,.backup}
    echo ""auto lo"" > /etc/network/interfaces
    echo ""iface lo inet loopback"" >> /etc/network/interfaces
    service network-manager start
    nm-applet&
    restart the machine


    but is there a way to use l2tp with kali? i have not been able to find anything thus far.

    thanks!

    brazen, you may like openvpn better. Here's a comparison chart:
    http://www.ivpn.net/knowledgebase/62...s-OpenVPN.html

    Download your config files/cert from your provider, make sure openvpn is installed
    cd to your config directory, ls, choose a config file
    Code:
    openvpn --config "Yourvpnprovider - US - etc..."
    enter your login id and pass
    after couple seconds you can close the terminal
    to test the connection:
    Code:
    curl canhazip.com
    For l2tp you can install it from synaptic

    thank you and i agree that i would like OpenVPN much better. but I am not sure how to set it up exactly. i see your code, but i am not advanced enough to do anything more then just mimic and copy what i am able to find in forums... lol

    is there something else that i can download instead of network manager gnome to be able to plug in info for openVPN? or more interesting to me... a complete command line input that i can use to connect it?

    THANKS!
