    Cannot connect to VPN

    Hello ubuntu users,
    it's like a week that I've been trying to connect with Ivacy VPN but I always face some errors that I don't know how I could I fix them. I know that there are a lot of thread like this but I didn't find the answer in none of them. I want also to tell you that with an applet of the free service called VPN Unlimited I can connect but when I try to use OpenVPN or PPTP with Ivacy, it's impossible. This is the log when I try to connect with Ivacy VPN.
    Thanks a lot to everyone is going to answer.

    Not sure if you have looked at this yet or not but worth a look: https://support.ivacy.com/kb/how-to-...lly-on-ubuntu/
    Looks to be straight forward and understandable.
    Kind regards

    Re: Cannot connect to VPN

    Ah ha! I have seen a few posts from others having the same problems as you have reported.
    They have created a "New text file" and added the below text to it in the same directory "/etc/modules-load.d ".
    Name the file or save the file as "netfilter.conf"
    Code:
    nf_nat_pptp
    nf_conntrack_pptp
    nf_conntrack_proto_gre
    And after a restart should be good to go.
    Fingers Crossed..

    Thank you! Last question: should I modify the file that I noticed that was empty or should I just create a new one?
    I'll give it a try right now!

    Re: Cannot connect to VPN

    Ether way is ok but to save the text file you will have to have elevated rights.
    So Use
    Code:
    gksudo gedit /etc/modules-load.d/netfilter.conf
    Add the above text to it and save and reboot
