Hello all,
I am really enjoying my BQ, thanks, great job so far.
I placed a VPN server at home, and I would like to be able to open a
ppp vpn when outside (via the 4G and other WiFis), same as I do with
my Ubuntu laptop and android devices.
L2TP/IPSEC support would be great, but I would settle even for PPTP
with MPPE128.
An similar example of how I configure PPTP in Ubuntu desktop is shown
here:
https://help.my-private-network.co.uk/support/solutions/articles/8452-pptp-on-linux-via-command-line
My stock OTA-7 Does not have PPP daemon installed, and does not have
the ppp-generic package in the repo.
I can help with setting up VPNs from the phones, but first I would
need some help obtaining pptp-linux, pptpd, ppp and curl packages.
Here are the error messages I get:
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo modprobe ppp-generic
[sudo] password for phablet:
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:557 kmod_search_moddep() could
not open moddep file '/lib/modules/3.4.67/modules.dep.bin'
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo apt-get install pptp-linux pptpd ppp curl
