Hi,

Please remove the package cisco-vpnclient, as this product has reached end-of-life: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/vpndevc/ps5743/ps5699/ps2308/end_...

Also, openconnect in extra provides the same functionality.

Thanks and regards,

Gavin.

A package still depends on it, I posted on its page and will wait until I get answer, if I get one, before deleting both.

I'd like to point out that openconnect can only replace cisco-vpnclient if the server is updated to support it. There are still many companies using very old software which is only compatible with the shrew soft VPN client (ike) and the old cisco-vpnclient. Cheers, Xiao-Long

Cheers, Xiao-Long VPNC (in [extra]) should be compatible with (most of) those Cisco VPN setups which are unsupported by openconnect. Do configurations still exist in which neither will work?

I'm not entirely sure. VPNC never worked with my dad's company's VPN. To be honest though, I didn't try very many times. They ban IP addresses after 3 failed connection attempts. Cheers, Xiao-Long
