Do I need to reinstall the OS?
Noooooooo! With Unixen/Linuxen, it is rarely, or even more rarely, an option or a solution!

Oen thing which you could try, though - in case you haven't cleared the apr and route tables - is to reboot. Have a go for man arp and man route commands; both (in a decently installed system) should produce a manual page to follow. It may be that an unsuccessfull installation of suc VPN product leaves unwanted traces to the system. (A reboot clears them out, but - a rebot is an option just before reinstallation :-)

I'm off for a leave now, back in monday, so happy easter and good luck...
