I installed network-manager-gnome and it did *not* solve my issue - I now have a nice applet that appears to help me configure my VPN, but any networks I add through the "Create VPN Connection" wizard never stick - I complete the configuration steps, review the results, hit "finish" and there's nothing listed, and no error indicating why the previously defined connection is gone.

network-manager, network-manager-gnome, and network-manager-pptp are all installed and up to date.

~/.xsession-errors shows some strange errors while I'm using this applet, e.g.:

/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found
and
** (nm-vpn-properties:5889): CRITICAL **: vpnui_opt_connect_signals: assertion `opt->widget!=NULL' failed
and
(nm-vpn-properties:5889): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_set_sensitive: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
