Hallo,
I have a VPN network setup in System Settings. The type of connection I am using for the VPN is PPTP. But I do not know how to connect to VPN. Very much appreciated if anyone can help.
THanks @!

Did you install the packages to provide the nice NetworkManager interface
for that?

I have check in the YaST, there were already installed, there are few of them, NetworkManager-pptp, NetworkManager-vpnc, and NetworkManager-openvpn. May I know which one I should run and how to run the program? I couldn’t see them in the “Start” menu.
THanks @!
What type of VPN are You trying to connect to ?
Those files are not in start menu. The most are something like plugins for knetworkmanager or gnome network manager applet.
Here are screenshots for plasmoid-networkmanagement (sorry for polish), which is an alternative to knetworkmanager. Basicly all these programs are graphical add ons to control NetowrkManager.
The tray icon looks should look something like this:
