network-manager-pptp doesn't work

We spend some hours by solving this issue on fresh edgy installation.

If try launching nm-applet with

nm-applet --sm-disable
```

doesn't work, then here is the

soloution.

Change in the following two files:

  • /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf
  • /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-applet.conf

From

<policy context="default">
        <allow own="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
        <allow senddestination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
        <allow sendinterface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>
```

To:

<policy context="default">
        <allow own="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
        <allow senddestination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
        <allow sendinterface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>
```

Then restart dbus:

sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart
```

And launch the applet:

nm-applet
```

Now it should work like a charm.
