Hi,

I connect to my company's network using a Cisco VPN client from
Windows XP. My company does not give out VPN clients for Linux but I'd
like to connect from a Linux machine. I'm facing two problems now:

1. I could not find a VPN client for Linux on the Cisco website.
Probably I didn't look hard enough. I'd like some pointer on this.

2. I tried using some client that I downloaded from the internet. I get
an error message saying that the Peer Platform type is not supported.
What I would like to know is whether there is any setting in the VPN
Concentrator that would prevent connections from a Linux machine? What
are the issues that would prevent someone from turning on connections
from a Linux machine? My system administrator says that he can't change
the settings for one person. I would have agreed if he had told me that
first up but he gave me other reasons before finally shutting me up
with this one.

I would like more information on this one.

Thanks,

Raj
