Hi,

I've just started with DSL and I think it rocks! What I was looking for was a small lightweight distro that could run under a VM on my Xp laptop - this certainly does the job.

To finish it off I need to be able to use KVPNC or at least vpnc or the cisco vpn client. I cant find any reference for these apps anywhere.

Any help appreciated

Cheers
Bryan

Bryan,
Try out this vpnc .dsl and tell me how it works. Be sure to enter into a terminal:

#modprobe tun

before using the vpnc. Maybe it will work out. There are graphical frontends for this, of course, but before going to that trouble it would be
nice to know if it works in DSL first. The file:

WOW! Many thanks Jason!, I will try this later.

Just a pointer though, how do I install the .dsl files manually?

I'm not new to linux in any way, but to DSL a complete newb!

Cheers

Hey,
Just click on the MyDSL icon on the desktop and then the Load Local button. For older versions of DSL I believe there is a button labeled MyDSL in the Emelfm file manager. I would appreciate any feedback on this extension since I am not really able to fully test it. Hope it works.

thanks for your time with this Jason...

Looks like this will work. Unfortuatly, I only have my Cisco PCF file here at home which only shows my encrypted group password.

I will get the password tomorrow and give it another go.

Unless there is a way to use the .pcf file ??

Many thanks - this will be really cool if this works :-)

Bryan
