OEL 5 - Cisco VPN connects proper, then in a few minutes times out
Issue
I installed the latest Linux Cisco VPN (e.g. on Oracle Enterprise linux)
Error
I get this-->
[user@localhost ~]$ vpnclient connect xyz

Questions
Even when I drop the OEL 5 firewall -- the remote peer will still "no longer respond"
Also, while the VPN is connected, browsers set to the proper proxy and mail do not connect and return data, etc...
Then it just does this -->
Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client
Reason: Remote peer is no longer responding.
Any advise will be appreciated....
Thanks.....

1) Note that I do understand that external mail will not work when connected to the vpn, only internal mail
2) When the vpn is connected, the following should work and both "do not work":
a) When pointing to the proper proxy, the browser should display "external pages like google" and internal pages..
b) And, internal imap mail should work - it does not
3) on a windows machine in the same exact subnet/network vpn works fine...?
4) Also, I have had vpn working with ubuntu 9.1x just previously in the same exact subnet/network!
5) ==> Something is not letting the vpn communicate "after" it is connected on the OEL 5 server ?
Thanks...

Cisco VPN connects but then no services are available.
Where to start:
I have a situation where by my remote office, 5 machines, connects to head office via Cisco VPN client.
Recently we have been able to make a vpn connection but once connected we have no services available like connecting to servers, internet, network drives, voip phone or even pinging any of the services. We get an IP address on the virtual network adaptor created by vpn connection but then nothing.
After a hec of amount of troubleshooting I swapped out our router, Draytek Vigor 2820, for another 2820. Same problem. I then took my Draytek Vigor from home, that does work, to the office and it works perfectly fine using the 2600 router in the office. I then tried a dlink router and that worked in office as well. So it has something to do with the 2820 router. It has been working fine for months and now recently, having changed nothing on it, it has stopped working for us with Cisco vpn connection. Does anyone have any clues as to why and what I could do on the router to resolve issue or could it be something on the cisco side that needs changing? I have already updated firmware to latest version on router.
Any help / advice would be great appreciated.
Regards,
AshleyCan you please share the configuration as there might be something that change after the upgrade that might cause the issue.

Cisco VPN connection drops on airport extreme on OS X 10.6.7
I recently bought Airport Extreme and I must say the wifi coverage and strength is amazing compared to the DLink or Belkin routers that I tried. THe whole thing setup like in 2 minutes. Love it.
Now the problem. I use CISCO VPN provided by work a lot as I work from home frequently. I have found that the VPN connection drops like in 2-5 minutes of connecting. I looked through the several threads and apple response " to use NAT-T in CISCO VPN preferences". Only thing is that I did not see any NAT setting options in preferences and also I am unable to edit anything in the CISCO VPN pref (probably things locked out by our IT who provided the vpn software).
I also tried someone's suggestion that I switch to manual radio channels in the airport utility config - but that didn't work either.
Any suggestions?
I am on OS X 10.6.7 and CISCO VPN CLIENT 4.9.0.1.0180
URGENT HELP NEEDEDairport is off how can i turn it on?
Click on the AirPort icon in the OS X menu bar. Select "Turn Wi-Fi On" or "Turn AirPort On" as appropriate.
how can i reinstall mac os x 10.6.7?
I would suggest that you start with the Snow Leopard installation disk. You can then update to 10.6.7 from Software Update. -
Hello Everyone,
We're having a problem with the Cisco VPN connection capability in Snow Leopard.
The transaction complains that our shared secret is incorrect. What I believe is happening is that certain assumptions are made about the IKE proposals and encryption etc. There doesn't appear to be a place to tailor these in the connection profile. There may be at the system level (which I'm unaware of).
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
I believe the same problem applies to the iPhone's Cisco VPN connector.
Furthermore, Cisco is not providing Snow-Leopard IPSec home-to-network clients any longer; they are promoting the AnyConnect SSL VPN instead, for which they have a BETA build available specifically for Snow Leopard.
So this reduces our options (yes, I'm working on VPNTracker).
Thank you.It is a known limitation that you are only able to establish a single VPN connection to the same VPN server through a router doing NAT like yours.
What client exactly do you use and what settings did you define there? -
I am tryijng to set up a cisco vpn connection.
I tried to do it manually throygh setting set up a vpn connection an by installion a config.
Always i get the message "voer de gebruikersgegevens in" what means in English enter your user contents or something.
I tried everything, setting of my Wifi before configuring
The information I filled in are:
Beschrijving: Optimix VPN
Server: 195.18.88.130
Account: my username
Password: .....
Uses cert: no
Groepsnaam: Optimixmobiel
Geheim: .....
Can somebody tell me what the problem is?
Kindly regardsI have the same problem. I configured My iPhone to connect my PIX trough VPN.
In the first time the first phrase wouldn't succeeded.
But I read this ( http://blogs.oreilly.com/iphone/2008/07/strong-passwords-can-hurt.html ) and that's now not really the problem. (to strong pw)
When I let the iPhone connect I see a popup 'Enter User Authentication' if I chose OK, its gone (I have the Dutch version)
If I see the syslog I see this: Authentication failed for user ''
it looks like the iPhone send an empty user account?
How can we fix this?

I have a new Ipad air. I have synced it to my PC before. This time I get an error message saying iTunes could not connect to the iPad because the device time out - what do I do?
Quit iTunes, restart your computer, reset the iPad and try again.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
mail is suddenly not recognizing my password. it has done this now and then for a few minutes, but this time it's been days. anything I can do?
try resetting your phone by turning it off and back on again. The servers may still be having a hard time keeping up, so you may just need to wait a little while and try again.

My Mac Mini starts to boot up then after a few minutes turns off. Please help.
seen this happen many times, usually always due to corrupt memory.......could be a power module in the Mini, but unlikely. hold down command R on startup, see if you can get into safe mode or ANY SCREEN ...If under warr. call mac for a service check, ....BUT if you have spare memory around that is compatable, try that first, process of elimination diagnostics.

No Cisco VPN Connection through AEBS
I have an HP nc8430 for work and had no problem connecting through a my home cable modem, AEBS and Cisco VPN tunnel to our secure network at work. Inexplicably the wireless connection via the VPN has stopped working. The PC can connect to the Internet directly through the AEBS as long as the VPN is not connected and can directly connect from the cable modem and VPN using an ethernet cable (wired connection). Does anyone have any suggestions? The IT "gurus" at work have been of little help.
12 PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)Hi Fred!
I suggest posting your question in a more appropriate forum such as the AirPort for Windows forum found here <http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1014>. This fourm is dedicated to Mac and Windows compatibility issues.
On a side note, while it may be popular to call the folks in the IT world "gurus" while rolling your eyes, keep in mind that just because they can't help you doesn't mean they don't know their jobs. (I would never expect a General Practioner doctor to be knowledgeable in heart surgery.) In this case they should only be expected to support your computer connecting directly to the Internet and then to your company network. Your network (the AEBS) is your responsibility, not theirs. If they try to help you and fail then be glad you at least have an IT group that's open to working with you. Some aren't willing to even go that far.
Best of luck finding your answer! bill

Cisco VPN connection just 'hangs', during connection.
Hello all.
I have installed Cisco VPN Client 4.6.00.0045, every so often when I try to connect it, it prompts for the username and password, which I enter, then it appears to try and connect but nothing, I have left it and left it for over 1hr at times, to see is its just slow, but nothing.
If I try and click on the Cancel Connection option, it doesnt cancel, if I use Task Manager, to end task it doesnt, the only way I appear to be able to 'get the system running' is by restarting the workstation.
My workstation is on a works network, other PCs are able to connect using the same VPN details, so it cant be Firewall etc...
My PC is running XP Pro SP2
Any ideas on what could be the problem?

Assigned VA private interface addr xx.xx.xx.xxxHave been having the same issue for several months. Similar configuration with XP Pro (SP3 now) using VPN Client 5.0.02.0090.
When the VPN client hangs, the svchost.exe uses up 100% of the CPU and a reboot is the only solution. Sometimes it take 5 or 6 reboots before the VPN will connect.
If I wait long enough after the initial login, I can usually connect but this does not always help. If I wait too long, however, or run other programs before I start the VPN Client, it will hang. If the system disconnects for some reason, the VPN client usually hangs on the reconnect.
I've been looking for an answer to this problem for some time now and this is the fist place I've seen where another user was experiencing the same issue. -

Hello!!
I'm using the IPSEC Cisco VPN Network property to connect to my company.
Once I get connected, I lose internet access, because all the traffic is redirected through the tunnel and I want both, of course.
If I modify the default getaway in the routing table, with this command
route change default x.x.x.x, where this is the getaway IP when not connected to the VPN,
I gain access to internet, but I lose access through the VPN tunnel.
I was reading about it in google, and what I have to do is to add a static route to the VPN again, but I don't know how.
Could you please help me?
thanks in advance!!Hi Norbert,
I am sorry to say that configuring routes in Azure Virtual network is not supported. I recommend you to submit your reuqirement on Azure Feedback and hope it would be released soon:

Configure cisco vpn connection in linux console
Hi all,
how do I configure cisco vpn_client connection in ubuntu/debian/raspbian linux console using .pcf file?
Thanks ahead.I mean, what packages should I install?
Is it possible to use only "apt-get install" or I should also use "dpkg"?
Is it possible to avoid using any guid interfaces because it is headless pc?
I'm asking because I successfully use openvpn connection in console and I hope that cisco vpn is also possible here.
Thanks for your attention and best regards! -
Cisco VPN connection not reliable
I connect to my VPN, and all works fine. After a while (always different, from 15 minutes to 2 hours), the VPN connection is not usable anymore, but it is indicated by the VPN indicator on the top of the screen that it is still connected. I cannot connect to my intranet servers anymore.
Anyone with same problem? Anyway to fix it?
I remember having the same problem via VPNC when I used to use Linux a while ago, but that was fixed later on in VPNC implementation when new package was available.I have a similar problem. In my case, after a similar period of time (some random time which can be anything from a couple of minutes to a couple of hours) the connection drops and the wifi becomes unusable until it is turned off and on. This only happens when i am at work using the cisco vpn. It doesn't happen with other wifi connections in other places. Apple have told me the problem is with cisco.
