Does anyone have a copy they could send to me? According to Cisco it's free and the license on it is free as well, but you need a Cisco CCO license in order to download it from their site. Thanks!

Thanks notfred :) Out of curiousity, how do you run it? I installed it and double clicked it in the Applications folder and it briefly appears in the dock for like 1/2 a second and disappears. I'm running OS X 10.3.7. Did I do something wrong?

Hmm, you might have. It's supposed to open a window that has connection and configuration info in it. Here's an installation guide. It should be the same for you, except of course the network information will be different for your own network.

Hey notfred,


I basically did the equivalent of those instructions.

It turns out that I was installing it on the other non-OS X partition and that wouldn't let it run for some reason. I put it on the OS X partition and booyah, it works :)

On a side note - Entourage can't see our Exchange server but that's something I can fix here at work. Thanks again :)

Glad you got it working. :)

If you ever need them, I can also get the windows, linux, and solaris versions of that VPN client.

I have the Windows version, the other two I might/might not need. (I'm sure they came with our 3002 or one of our other Cisco pieces of hardware) Thanks again :) How's the Cobra running?

I'm running the Cisco VPN on 10.3.7, and it's fine, but yeah, I think it only runs on an HFS+ partition.

I would appreciate the Linux version. I've got fedora on my laptop and tried to use the cisco vpn client, but couldn't get it working. It would prompt for authentication, but it would never authenticate. We've made some changes to the configuration and I would like to try again, but I can't seem to find the copy of the linux version that I had before.

Thanks
Daniel

Has anyone been able to get the beta version of the Cisco VPN client that runs on Tiger? I will never be able to get it through the company I work for as they do not support Macs.

This is one of the places I have read about a beta.

http://www.usc.edu/isd/it/alerts/osx4_vpn_connectivity.html
"........In the interim, Cisco has provided the Information Services Division (ISD) with a test version of a Tiger-compatible client called VPN 3000 4.6 Beta. Because this software is only a test version, ISD cannot support its use on USC networks.

However, if you are willing to experiment with Cisco's test version, you may download it from the following ISD Web site: http://software.usc.edu."

Does anyone have a copy of the cisco vpnclient-darwin-4.6.03.0160-GUI-k9 that they could send me? It was just released and is supposed to work with Tiger (but only for single processor machines).
Even though it is free and part of their license I asked the IT department at my work did no support for Macs mean not even getting me the client, and they will not even respond.
