AWESOME GUIDE!! However, the link to the c-source is dead - use this in stead: http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~massar/soft/cisco-decrypt.c

I’m able to connect properly but I can’t see anything on the network. It works fine in windows and I can ping the IP 172.21.90.102, but I can’t in Ubuntu 10.

Netstat for windows gives this:

Is there something I need to do to fix this?

I’ve followed the instructions to the letter and after running vpnc. I keep getting prompted for the password?

I’ve confirmed the remote credentials are correct?

What next?

awesome. Worked like a charm on Jaunty. None of the network manager, default keyring and the other unrelated crappy problems… great !

Works like a charm. As stated above once you have the decrypted group password you can use the Network Mangler applet to connect; it’s kinda sexy but I always a term or three open anyway.
