On which program menu or in YaST is is the "VPN Connection" found? I think I saw NetworkManager previously (probably on 10.1), but can't found it on 10.2 nor on 10.3 x86 and x86_64. As I mentioned, trying to start KNetworkManager tells that NetworkMangaer isn't running. Where is it possibly started? --terje > On Nov 14, 2007 6:49 AM, Terje J.
