If anyone was wondering why the VPN (ADD) was grayed out, it because the required plugins are not installed.
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/deiban-...-tab-disabled/Code:# apt-get install network-manager-openvpn network-manager-pptp network-manager-vpnc
I tried the command but I got the above error for all 3 packages - any ideas? Still no VPN usage.Code:Package network-manager-openvpn is not available, but is referred to by another package.
E: Package 'network-manager-opnvpn' has no installation candidate.
Legend,
Try issuing 'apt-get update' first.
From the comments in the link s4nc0 provided, the full command is:
Code:apt-get update
apt-get install network-manager-openvpn network-manager-pptp network-manager-pptp-gnome network-manager-vpnc network-manager-vpnc-gnome
Might be because of your typo? 'network-manager-opnvpn'?Quote:

I got it working. I was missing "sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome" You do have to update first in order for it to work.Quote:

One of the first tips offensive security gives is to update constantly ):
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn
# sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn-gnome
# sudo apt-get install network-manager-pptp
# sudo apt-get install network-manager-pptp-gnome
# sudo apt-get install network-manager-strongswan
# sudo apt-get install network-manager-vpnc
# sudo apt-get install network-manager-vpnc-gnome
Only one command : apt-get install network-manager-pptp-gnome
Work well
