Bug Description
Hello,
I tried to setup a pptp VPN using NM and I'm unable to connect. After having settings parameters, I activate the VPN in the GUI manager and get in syslog:
Mar 9 11:50:47 localhost gnome-session[
I try to debug and get the policies error:
dh@deex:~$ /usr/lib/
** Message: nm-pptp-service (version 1.1.93) starting...
** Message: Error: failed to create NMPptpPlugin: Connection ":1.161" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedeskto
If I execute this command with sudo there is no error but VPN still doesn't start.
The same setup with Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS is working well
