Public bug reported:
Dear developers,
I tried to connect to my school with network-manager-pptp, but there was no traffic after the connection. The following is my attemption to fix the problem.
-----------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, before I start PPTP connection, I modified my /etc/ppp/ip-up like this
================================================
#!/bin/sh
#
# This script is run by the pppd after the link is established.
# It uses run-parts to run scripts in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d, so to add routes,
# set IP address, run the mailq etc. you should create script(s) there.
#
# Be aware that other packages may include /etc/ppp/ip-up.d scripts (named
# after that package), so choose local script names with that in mind.
#
# This script is called with the following arguments:
# Arg Name Example
# $1 Interface name ppp0
# $2 The tty ttyS1
# $3 The link speed 38400
# $4 Local IP number 12.34.56.78
# $5 Peer IP number 12.34.56.99
# $6 Optional ``ipparam'' value foo
# The environment is cleared before executing this script
# so the path must be reset
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
export PATH
# These variables are for the use of the scripts run by run-parts
PPP_IFACE="$1"
PPP_TTY="$2"
PPP_SPEED="$3"
PPP_LOCAL="$4"
PPP_REMOTE="$5"
PPP_IPPARAM="$6"
export PPP_IFACE PPP_TTY PPP_SPEED PPP_LOCAL PPP_REMOTE PPP_IPPARAM
# as an additional convenience, $PPP_TTYNAME is set to the tty name,
# stripped of /dev/ (if present) for easier matching.
PPP_TTYNAME=`/usr/bin/basename "$2"`
export PPP_TTYNAME
# If /var/log/ppp-ipupdown.log exists use it for logging.
if [ -e /var/log/ppp-ipupdown.log ]; then
exec > /var/log/ppp-ipupdown.log 2>&1
echo $0 $*
echo
fi
# This script can be used to override the .d files supplied by other packages.
if [ -x /etc/ppp/ip-up.local ]; then
exec /etc/ppp/ip-up.local "$*"
fi
run-parts /etc/ppp/ip-up.d \
--arg="$1" --arg="$2" --arg="$3" --arg="$4" --arg="$5" --arg="$6"
# if pon was called with the "quick" argument, stop pppd
if [ -e /var/run/ppp-quick ]; then
rm /var/run/ppp-quick
wait
kill $PPPD_PID
fi
env >/route.txt
route -n >>/route.txt
route del default
route add default gw $IPLOCAL dev $IFNAME
route -n >>/route.txt
================================================
Thus, I attempted to correct the route table after the PPTP connection was established. And the /route.txt is,
================================================

===============================================
You can see the route table became correct for a while when it was still
running the scripts. After that, the route table immediately became
nonsense (no matter whether I modified the `ip-up' script or not).
My system is up-to-date. Please help me get rid of this situation.
Thanks a lot!
