Robert & Dan,
I got a very useful response from James Cameron (the PPTP maintainer).
It looks like my correct course of action is to build a pppd plugin,
which apparently
are very version dependent, but I'm sure the packaging for a particular
distro will be able to get around that. It seems a

I launced nm-applet once in a terminal and that caused the applet gui
to appear in the system tray. I then logged out of KDE and logged
back in and nm-applet appeared again in my system tray. So I
believe it was stored as a part of my KDE session. Further
investigation shows that /home/bdmurray/

I also am running SuSE 10.0 with KDE and I
installed the rpm NetworkManager-gnome-0.4.1cvs20050901-2 and that
includes the nm-applet utility and I think that will provide the Network Manager info you are looking for.
Hope that helps,

Hi Robert,
Thanks for the response. I do want it to "just work". But "minor edits
then just works" seems to be better than "doesn't work"; if only a step
in the right direction.
This means for me that I can now run NM in one important location
(office) and gives me more motivation to get i

Hey all,
I'm trying to build network manager on Debian testing/unstable.
First of all, has anyone been successful in doing this yet?
The configuration script for 0.5.1 is failing, because it says that I
need wireless-tools >= 28pre9. I currently have the
wireless-tools27+28pre10-1 debian
