If your vpn concentrator admin still insists on using DES
use the "--enable1des" option.

How can I enable the 1des option with the GUI clients? Or do I need to execute VPNC through the command line? (I am a complete linux newbie, though, so step by step instructions would be greatly appreciated!)

I have the same problem too, anyone can help?

On VPNC GUI I get the following message:

"Connecting...
Launching vpnc, please be patient...
Connect banner:
My Companay Banner Message display correctly here.
route: SIOCDELRT: No such process
route: SIOCADDRT: Invalid argument
sending state in dbus: connected

Then nothing happened???????

Yeah, those errors are due to attempting to remove a non-existant (at the time) TUN/TAP interface in some shell file under /etc/, I tracked it down but didn't get around to trying to fix it up (the shell file seems to be different that some of the other vpnc installs I have around).

After you've received the "dbus connect" message, back out of the window and try navigating to/pinging an intranet resource and see if it is indeed working. You might be pleasantly surprised

There needs to be some greater documentation on how to use this function... I've copied over the pcf file and tried to import it and nothing happens.

Unfortunately failed to ping.

When I press the "Disconnect" button, I get the following
:
Disconnecting...
Interrupt, terminating vpnc ...
route: SIOCDELRT: No such process
sending state in dbus: disconnected
VPNC started in foreground...
Connected!
Disconnected!

Huh? why at the last line it said "Connected" and then "Disconnected".hmmmmmm

Btw i am using VPNC GUI 0.4.1

Edit:
Okay, i think i found the problem, it is the banner that causing it is not able to proceed, because it need a accept the banner respond before it can complete. cos when I tried it on my windows xp, my vpn client cannot complete it connection until i accept the banner.

So how can i do it here with the VPNC GUI?

I know after the banner show up, it required respond to this banner in order to allow Continue to complete the login process.

How can i make it pass this screen?

Anyone?

You have to minimize the application, and then you can start the programs.
When finnishing you open up the application and push disconnect

Same problem for me with banner.
Anyone knows how to accept the banner?
