I have made packages for NetworkManager-pptp. They are at my home dir in the
SUSE Build Service:
http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/hgraeber/openSUSE_10.2/
After some work, the current version works with CHAP authentification. PAP
isnt implemented yet work. For users of SUSE Linux 10.1: Ther are packages.
too, but currently untested.
