Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager-pptp

The user ID entered in the dialog is not used for the connection. The current login session is used instead. Confirmed by output in syslog.

Ubuntu 8.04.01
network-manager-pptp 0.6.5+svnhead2574-0ubuntu1

Potential security issue since the wrong user id is used.

It seems to be using the machine name on mine, because the username I chose to log in with is the same as my VPN.
