Hi!
How can I make a vpn connection in Parsix?
I have ran apt-get update and installed NetWorkManager.
What to do now?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
It is recommended that you reboot your system after installing " NetWorkManager " .
after reboot you can see your VPN next to the clock , on top panel

You should install network-manager-gnome and network-manager-pptp packages too.

I have installed network-manager-gnome and network-manager-pptp packages and rebooted my pc, but I don't see any icons next to clock. just a volume control and window selector icons.
Is there any other ways to activate network manager?

Thanks a lot for your reply, networkmanager started and I configured a vpn connection, but how can I connect to the configured vpn?
when I click on network manager icon on systray it shows my configured vpn but it is deactivated which I can not select it. and it also shows "configure VPN". How can I connect to my connection?

In Parsix3 (kev) NetworkManager is installed as default.With NetworkManager and network-manager-pptp creation of a pptp VPN connection is very very easy.
