Problems with VPN of Fedora19


Hi forum,

My question is probably simple but not familiar to me. I am trying to connect to a Windows VPN network from my Fedora 19 box. I bring up Network Settings and create a new VPN network, I choose PPTP as it's a Windows domain I want to connect to and the following:

Connection name: Hashbangs VPN

Gateway: 192.168.12.34 - Internal IP address of my XP vm on the network

Username: hashbangbinbash
Password hashbangpasword

NT Domain: vpn.hashbangdomain.com

I keep on failing to connect, not sure where to look, most of the google results I've found seem to veer off into even less known territory. I can connect quite straight-forwardly using these details from Windows machine but would prefer to connect from linux machine. I'm sure I'm doing something obviously wrong but not sure what, I have under Authentication - PAP, CHAP, MSCHAP, MSCHAPv2 and EAP all selected, these work on the Windows to Windows vpn connection so I've kept the same defaults on the Fedora box.

Any advice appreciated.

What kind of VPN do you configure between Windows and Linux, VPN tunnel or PPTP. VPN tunnel may be more easy.
Following link is for VPN tunnel.
