[Bug 259168] Re: Network Manager unable to connect to PPTP VPN (bad NT-Domain escaping)

[1longtime]

@Alexander Sack RE: "1longtime, your issue is most likely bug 268667"

This was the first one I tried and bug 268667 fixed my problem.  Thanks
Alexander.  After trying the suggested fix in that bug, my VPN connects
successfully.

Oddly, when I tried to "undo" the fix, it continued to connect properly.

@Martin Pitt RE: intrepid-proposed updates

I did an "apt-get upgrade" with entrepid-proposed sources several days
ago, before  verified the source had updated (and accidentally updated
quite a bit more than I expected... oops).  I just did another apt-get
update/upgrade and found updates for a number of packages, including a
couple of pptp packages.

The VPN problem is still fixed, but because I couldn't rollback the
fixes from bug 268667 we can't be certain that the updates fixed my
issue.

@jmcantrell

Could not find advanced-dialog.c.  I'm not sure how to apply your patch.

Another side-note:  manually adding "refuser-eap" to ppp options fixed
ONE of my Ubuntu boxes but not the other (the one I've been fighting
with in this thread).  Strange.

Thanks all for the help, but it was a very disruptive bug.  Kinda shakes
the faith a bit...
