Does anyone know how to setup a connection to a Virtual Private Network.
In windows xp, it is done like this:
New Connection > Connect to the network at my workplace > Virtual Private Network connection > (configuration)....
For encryption, I need "Optional encryption), and PAP protocol allowed.
I've tried several distros, and no one could tell me how to set it up.
Oh and btw, simpler question: How to configure my ethernet adapter (LAN card) for prefered DNS server, default gateway etc?
Needless to say, I am relatively new to linux.
