As of at least netctl v1.16 connection scripts seem to have moved from /usr/lib/network/connections/ to /usr/lib/netctl/

Otherwise, you would get connection errors like next when starting vpnc netctl profile: 

Apr 21 13:44:28 cuba network[31179]: Profile 'vpn-****' does not specify a valid connection

I workaround that by symlinking:

ln -s /usr/lib/network/connections/vpnc /usr/lib/netctl/connections

Thank you for your answer. Thanks to you, I can have access to VPN.

Well, great… 1) you have to create netctl config file /etc/netctl/vpn: === Connection=vpnc Interface=vpnc VpncConfig="/etc/vpnc/vpn.conf" VpncFlags="" === 2) then you have to create vpnc config /etc/vpnc/vpn.conf with desired settings 3) then start it using netctl start vpn

I installed this package to use vpnc in netctl. However I cannot know how to use it. If you don't mind, would you tell me the method to use it?
