I'll look into it, but I'll probably need some help from the Gentoo kernel folks.
Comment 6 Thomas Bettler 2004-05-07 07:37:46 UTC
For now I'm using gentoo-dev-2.6.3-r1(+win4lin patch), which isn't that stable on my box (some hangs with win4lin) but with this kernel everything works fine, so the bug might be a change between these kernelversions.

Just tell me, what you need to know
Comment 7 Jesse Becker 2004-08-12 12:21:06 UTC
There is a known bug with Cisco's vpnclient having some issues with large sized TCP connections.  This is Cisco bug CSCee27420:

http://vpn.doit.wisc.edu/download/test/vpnclient-linux-4.0.5-readme.txt

The solution is to use 2.6.5 or greater (I'm using 2.6.7 and do not see this problem).
Comment 8 Thomas Bettler 2004-08-12 12:32:36 UTC
Thanx for your help.
