Connecting to Tech's VPN
=Connecting to Tech's VPN=
This is a fairly simple process, but it wasn't See the [[VPN]] page for information on the tech website anywhere so it is here. Select System -> Preferences -> Network Connections Go connecting to the tab that says Virginia Tech VPN and click add. Select "Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)" and click create.  For gateway enter "pptp.cns.vt.edu" your user name will be your pid.  NT Domain leave blank. The password will not be the same as your pid. The password that you will put is your remote passphrase. If you have already set-up VT-wireless, using MS-CHAP, you will enter the same passphrase you used then. If you haven't done this you will need to set-up a remote passphrase. The Passphrase that you set up, will be the password that you enter and you will be able to connect. You can set-up your remote passphrase by logging into my.vt.edu, go to the settings tab, then click the "set remote passphrase" link, and set it.This is the link for further questions on this.
