exactly yes what I am looking for! I have network-openvpn, openvpn, l2tp and
it looks like pptp rpms.
I am running an older F20. Now I have F23 and might try 24. But I like
the old fedora 20 because it's the last one that you didn't /have/ to have
dnf. It was an option. I run that in cli and have many development libraries
and gcc. It's my *experimental* OS :) And I have links but I don't use a
GUI. I use the old fashioned way. And I would like to use a good nntp
client. That's is posted from XP x64.
