Re: nm-vpn over ppp?

["zuse gmx at" <zuse gmx at>]

hi!

I'm using gnome-ppp 0.6.6 (that controls wvdial 1.60 I think).
Then pppd 2.4.4 is started and a ppp0 appears in my network-interfaces-list.
I'm sure it is not a network problem, because all my internettraffic is 
ok over ppp.
I rather think nm-applet will not let me activate a vpn-connection in 
case of none active ethX.

??

thanks for help!
