I have had a very annoying problem on my Gentoo system (kernel 2.6.8-gentoo-r3). Installing the Cisco VPN client (either the 4.0.* ebuilds or 4.6.0 by hand) works, and I can connect to the other end (the VPN server) properly. However, I cannot get any traffic to traverse the tunnel, and also lose access to my local network. (The latter is expected because split tunnelling is disabled)

However, vpnc works flawlessly once I (manually) set up the route through the tunnel it creates (via "route add -net blah netmask blah dev tun0"). Could the Cisco client be having problems standing up a similar route on the 2.6.x kernels?

The only errors I've been able to find thus far are in /var/log/messages:

(FWIW, the network card is a D-Link DFE-530TX+)

Any ideas? This is pretty much the only thing holding me back from a Windows-free life. (Yes, I know I could use vpnc but I'd prefer to use the Cisco client, if at all possible, for compatibility & consistency.)

Thanks!
