Anyone got a resource on setting up a CentOS box to connect to a Cisco PIX 5xx VPN using IPSec? I don't know if it matters but an important part of functionality would be split tunneling, I need to maintain that from the windows side of functionality.
Thanks! jlc

I don't know anything about "split tunneling". But I use VPNC for most of my cisco vpn work: http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~massar/vpnc/
There's also the "real" Cisco client for Linux. You're allegedly supposed to be a real cisco customer to get access to it, but you should be able to find it here too: http://www.uni-konstanz.de/RZ/wlan/ipsec/software/

Fred, What do you need to get vpnc compiled and installed?
Thanks! jlc

vpnc is available in the rpmforge repository .. just yum install it ;-) If you don't know what rpmforge is , read http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories and https://rpmrepo.org/RPMforge/

It looks as if it is available as a "el5" package from the rpmforge repository, but I just downloaded the source package from the URL given above and did "make".
The README in the source directory says it requires libgcrypt (and though it doesn't say specifically, that probably means the 'devel' package for libgcrypt).

Fabian/Fred, Thanks! I don't know why I never checked if it was in rpmforge, I have that setup:) Its all good now! The pcf password decrpytor even saved me a tedious look through my email!
Appreciate it, jlc
