Hi!
I want to connect via vpn to the network at work, that's what I did:

I installed the package network-manager-vpnc

I clicked on the icon for the network-manager and chose "Configure VPN"
I configured it with the data I got from the system administrator at work, i.e gateway, groupname, etc.

When I want to connect, I cannot click on the connection I just configured, it seems, I have to log in as root or so, but there is no root account on ubuntu..

Thx for any piece of advice,
Iso
