Feature added by: Yasha Gindikin (SlonoInquisitor) Feature #309322, revision 1 Title: L2TP support in openSUSE openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Yasha Gindikin (slonoinquisitor) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Please, add the xl2tpd package to the installation DVD and official repository, and provide a way to configure the L2TP connection through the Network Manager. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Currently, many internet providers switch from the older Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) to a newer one, called Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP). This transition is especially noticeable in Russia, where both large and smaller ISP companies tend to obtrude it without any alternative upon the end-user. However, the support for L2TP is totally missing in openSUSE. Specifically, the xl2tpd package to provide the support is absent in official repositories and has no assigned maintainer. Which is a shame, since most solid distribution, including Ubuntu, Debian and Mandriva, have this package in their repos. Then, no support for L2TP is provided in Network Manager. Generally, there is not any configuration tool for L2TP in openSUSE, apart from manual tuning the text configuration files. The situation should be improved. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309322
