Comment 2 for bug 145107

I can't test desktop CD right now, because I can't reboot the machine, but it's an up-to-date hardy (32 bit version) right now. Left clink on icon of nm-applet only presents 'manual configuration ...' , Since there is NOT dhcp server here (static address) I can't use DHCP, but I would like to create VPN connections. The same versioned system (I mean it's up-to-date hardy too) offers create VPN connections but there is DHCP there (provided by the linksys wireless home routers). I would like to create and user VPN connections even if I have static IP address. It was said on some forums that in case of static address assignment it's not possible to utilize the full feature list of network manager and that's the problem.
