trying to install vpnc or Cisco vpn client on Suse 9.1 (amd 64)

with vpnc I get failed dependencies - needs libgcrypt & libgpg-error, (but they ARE installed), have tried both the rpm for i586 & using source code

with Cisco vpn won't make module "libsec.ko"

any ideas?


I have the Cisco VPN client working perfectly on my laptop (P4, suse 9.1)
and have installed vpnc without probs either on that laptop

so it's something to do with the 64 bits

thanks for your help

I have also tried the pptp script, but don't understand the commands, I would also be happy if someone could explain that to me.


I just want to be able to connect to my server at work (via VPN), and I don't care how........

anyone....
please.........

??

has anyone got this working??

I'm having the same problem on 9.2. How did u get Cisco VPN to work??

cisco vpn worked on suse 9.1 on my i586 laptop.
I just tried different versions until it worked.

can't get cisco vpn to work on 9.2 on either computer.

Well I got the the software installed , no firewall but still can't connect?? Any ideas?

Company uses Group name and PAssword

This is what i'm getting when I try to connect.

Yes indeed.

Checkout the svn repository. This version works on x86_64...
