vpnclient firewall policy mismatch issue

Hi all,

I have installed vpnclient 4.8.00 (0490) on my centOS GNU/Linux OS. I configured the profiles (using the same profile pcf files which was on my WinXp system)

I can connect to CISCO VPN from my WinXP machine but with the same profile (.pcf) on Linux am getting "Firewall Policy Mismatch." message. I stopped the iptables but even though getting the same message.
following is the trace;

Code:

Hi all,

It seems that the problem is with cisco_ipsec driver, might be the kernel is not supporting the driver or not sure whats missing. Anyway I found a different solution, I used vpnc and it worked.. [Smilie]

Thanks...
