I’ve recently been tasked on implementing a linux vpn client for our IPSEC/L2TP based vpn. This task would have been extremely difficult if not for the efforts of Jacco de Leeuw (for his “Using Linux as an L2TP/IPsec VPN client” documentation) and Scott Myron et al. from Indiana University (“Linux L2TP over IPsec VPN Script for IU”).

Nuovo kernel nuova patch per il Cisco VPN Client che grazie ancora ad Alexander torna a funzionare senza problemi, ecco i passi da seguire per patchare il vostro client:

1. Untar the VPN Client

# tar xzf vpnclient-linux-4.8.01.0640-k9.tar.gz

2. Download the patch

# wget -q http://projects.tuxx-home.at/ciscovpn/patches/vpnclient-linux-2.6.24-final.diff

3. Change to the vpnclient diretory

# cd vpnclient

4. Apply the patch
