I'm trying to get my VPN connection to work...
Network manager is working OK and I have installed the pptp package. When I try to connect with the plasma networkmanager widget it just fails silently...
I don't know where to look next..

looks like you need mppe enabled to connect to your vpn server, edit your vpn config file and add +mppe to it.

make sure you don't have any firewall rules blocking pptp as it happened to me with the same error.
