My compile attempts left the Network Manager not being able to find the client during compile even though I had already compiled and installed the client. I think you need to play around with the paths when installing the client. For example the --libdir must be /usr/lib

I am a little sick at the moment and not much time or energy. :cry:

Hi, This is how i compile sstp-client

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --includedir=/usr/include --libexecdir=/usr/lib/sstp-client --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --disable-dependency-tracking --with-runtime-dir=/var/run/sstpc --enable-user --enable-group

and Network Manager Plugins

./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/NetworkManager

but it doesn't show any dialog box.

Note: i compile same way and make it SSTP connection working on Ubuntu Desktop.
