Description Adam Walker 2009-12-24 20:13:34 UTC
The specified port does not have a means to store password authentication information in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections. In essence, this means an automated global connection to a PPTP VPN cannot exist until a user trusted with the password information activates it.

Could you try 0.7.999 to see if this has been fixed now?
