A working configuration for connecting to windows vpn

Connecting from:

• Laptop: DELL vostro 1400
• On ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-21-generic
• Connecting to a Windows VPN server using vpn connection manager

===================================
Installed "VPN Connection Manager (PPP generic)". Then created the profile using network manager. After installing the vpn connection manager you need to restart the network manager.

Worked after many trail and errors. I dont know why it was not working and is working now. IP addresses of machines in my office are 192.168.X.60 192.168.X.61 etc. So I tried 192.168.X.0/24 and it worked.
