You have to connect using vpnclient itself. You can specify the profile then. It's "vpnclient connect profilename" if I remember correctly (for profilename.pcf). The kernel module just cares for packet injection in Linux's ip stack and brings a IPsec stack. Note that there's a more elegant solution with "vpnc" (also in portage), if it fits for you (still hasn't some functions of Cisco's client, but it's free and you don't have to use a binary proprietary kernel module). -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
