Description Paweł 2016-12-07 09:18:45 UTC 
Description of problem:
Before todays pptp upgrade, I couldn't use PPTP - it just didn't work, because nf_conntrack_pptp module was not loaded (it was not found/loaded on kernel 4.8.10, this bug => https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1254340), but I didn't have the time to properly diagnose it.

Then I upgraded to the 4.8.11 kernel, and it still didn't work.

Then after todays pptp upgrade (1.9.0-1), this SELinux alert happens everytime i try to start pptp vpn. So basically I just can't use PPTP VPN on Fedora 25.
SELinux is preventing pptpcm from 'read' accesses on the chr_file random.

*****  Plugin catchall_boolean (89.3 confidence) suggests   ******************

If aby allow authlogin to nsswitch use ldap
Then należy powiadomić o tym SELinuksa włączając zmienną logiczną „authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap”.
Na stronie podręcznika „None” znajduje się więcej informacji.
Do
setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1

*****  Plugin catchall (11.6 confidence) suggests   **************************

If aby pptpcm powinno mieć domyślnie read dostęp do random chr_file.
Then proszę to zgłosić jako błąd.
Można utworzyć lokalny moduł polityki, aby umożliwić ten dostęp.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'pptpcm' --raw | audit2allow -M my-pptpcm
# semodule -X 300 -i my-pptpcm.pp

Comment 6 jadecristal 2017-01-04 12:53:50 UTC 
Description of problem:
Adding a PPTP connection to a vpn provider and setting options using solely the NetworkManager dialog boxes (disabling, from default, all by MSCHAPv2, and setting the Use Point-to-Point Encryption option) causes the error when attempting to bring the link up.
