Hi All , Any one using Cisco VPN Client [vpnclient-linux-4.6.00.0045-k9.tar.gz] on CentOS 5 [2.6.18-53.1.4.el5-i686] The client installation is giving error for making module "cisco_ipsec.ko". Can any one help me out to resolve this :
Probably, if it were in any way legible. Sending html formatted email is bad mmmkay.
The whole stack trace of the installation after the extraction of the tar is as shown: make[2]: *** [/home/user1/software/vpnclient/linuxcniapi.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [_module_/home/user1/software/vpnclient] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-53.1.4.el5-i686' make: *** [default] Error 2 Failed to make module "cisco_ipsec.ko".
Okay it's stupid question time, since we don't have any additional information.
What's the output of uname -a, and do you have the corresponding kernel-devel package installed, which matches your running kernel?

I think that issue is fixed with the 4.8 cisco vpn client. Check out this site: http://www.uni-konstanz.de/RZ/wlan/ipsec/software/

going to C$ VPN Client version 4.8.01.0640 should compile.

Try vpnc, for me it works a lot better than the Cisco vpn client which while I got it to compile fine, when I connect it spits out a generic, useless error and refuses to connect to the remote site.

I've been using it several times a week for about 6 months now under Ubuntu. It uses a generic tunneling(tun I believe) driver included in the kernel. Only issue I have had is sometimes it doesn't want to work over my sprint wireless broadband(I think the latency is too high for it), typically after retrying a couple times it works. Over my 1Mbit DSL at home it's rock solid stable. There's even a GUI component for the Gnome network manager if you prefer(I use the CLI since I don't use Gnome).
I don't see a package for CentOS in the default v5 distribution, but there may be an RPM out there that is compatible some place, if you don't want to compile it.
