Title: Zentyal 2.1 Beta - PPTP; Captive Portal questions
Post by: vshaulsk on July 21, 2011, 07:16:52 pm

Hello !!!

I have been trying out the latest Beta of Zentyal.  So far my impression is that the web dashboard seems to work faster which is great. 

I can't seem to connect to my server using PPTP.  I am trying to connect through my androids built in client.  Has anyone tried using the new PPTP module??

Second I can't seem to start the captive portal module.  I can open the module and set options, but when I go to the menu to actually activate the module it fails.  It fails after the drop down menu for dependencies (LDAP )... I click ok and it just shoots me over to a white page saying that it has failed.
Anybody got this moduel to work???

Did you try re-install the CP module?

There was a bug in captiveportal that prevented enable in a previous version, but with the current one (2.1.6) it should work without problem. Please upgrade it.

I have also tried PPTP and it didn't work (nor IPSec, by that matter).
The PPTP server appeared to be running but I couldn't find any logs nor any meaningful error message.

Didn't work is not very self-descriptive, please detail a little further if you got IP address, if you could ping, which firewall ruleset you had (iptables -t filter -L -n -v ; iptables -t nat -L -n -v) and grep /var/log/syslog for messages.
