Copy VPN settings from Windows to Linux[edit]

I have a Windows laptop that connects using VPN to our main branch location. Our collections database is there. I want to connect to the database with one of our Linux computers. It has VPN capability. I can click the network icon and select "Add VPN." But, I don't kow what the settings are. Is it reasonable for a user to copy the VPN settings from the Windows computer to the Linux computer and get the Linux computer to connect to the VPN? 97.82.165.112 (talk) 12:37, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I may be not that simple. You should ask your system administrator how to set up the Linux machine. Ruslik_Zero 20:07, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
