SSTP VPN on Ubuntu 20.04 - can't install sstp network-manager plugin
I have installed Ubuntu 20.04 and have problem when I try install sstp network-manager plugin. In old versions I used the repository ppa:eivnaes/network-manager-sstp and it worked! but on 20.04 I have problems with some dependencies:
sstp-client : Depende: libevent-2.1-6 (>= 2.1.8-stable) mas não é instalável
Recomenda: network-manager-sstp mas não será instalado ou
network-manager-sstp-gnome mas não será instalado
E: Impossível corrigir problemas, você manteve (hold) pacotes quebrados.
Is there a way to use sstp vpn with network-manager plugin on Ubuntu 20.04?
Solution 1:
For anyone trying it now, you can install it now "the standard way":
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eivnaes/network-manager-sstp
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install network-manager-sstp sstp-client
Solution 2:
Maybe the functionality of these packages is already part of Ubuntu 20.04?
At my university, we were asked to install network-manager-sstp
in order to connect to the university VPN.
Using Settings > Network > VPN > Add > Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) worked just fine without installing anything and had all the settings described in the tutorial for setting up VPN with network-manager-sstp
(tutorial was for Ubuntu 19.10 eoan).
