Networking :: Vpnc Freezes Computer With Kernel 2.6.33-gentoo-r2, X86_64
Jul 18, 2010
I am trouble trying to get vpnc to work on my laptop.
Using the same computer via Ubuntu, it works fine.
I used to use an older kernel with the cisco vpn client, but had to go through the motions of turning off cpus in order for it to work. I gave that trick a try and it does not work.
I pretty much followed the instructions from: Gentoo Linux Documentation -- Gentoo vpnc HOWTO
The machine completely locks up right after I enter my password...
I don't see anything relevant in the /var/log/messages file.
Is there another log file to look into specific to the vpnc?

I have a couple VPNs I use for work, and after installing F14 x86_64 it is failing:
Code:
Nov 5 12:40:57 raykj NetworkManager[4106]: <info> VPN service 'vpnc' started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc), PID 4203
Nov 5 12:40:57 raykj NetworkManager[4106]: <info> VPN service 'vpnc' appeared; activating connections

I installed network-manager-vpnc, configured cisco vpn through NetworkManager. It works slow, but the bigger problem is that after minute or so the connection just freezes.Then I tried kvpnc. It works like it should from speed point of view. But it also hangs up after minute or two.Tried to change MTU of my wired connection to 1500 - no good.Tried to uncomment line in /etc/ppp/options "mru 542" - no good.
Created /var/run/vpnc because it was giving some error "can't open pidfile /var/run/vpnc/pid for writing".From logs everything seems fine except for "nm-dispatcher.action:Script '/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/01ifupdown' exited with error status 1." in last line. If I use kvpnc it gives no errors.SO, how do I debug this thing or does anyone knows something I don't in this case?

In fc10 & fc11 everything worked well with vpnc.
With fc12 vpnc starts allows me to connect to my work site then everything works fine til I try and start a remote desktop connections to a windows client use tsclient. All I get is a blackscreen and my laptop is hung.
At work without the vpnc it works fine if I start the vpnc from nm it performs the exact same way and I get the blackscreen.
I have disable selinux.I also disabled the firewall
there was another gentlemen on here with the same issue.
The only way out is a hard reboot and there are no messages in the logs that say there were any problems.

I've been trying to connect to my office Cisco VPN several time using the network-manager-vpnc GUI in Ubuntu Karmic with no success. I read a couple of articles and i tried using the direct command line way:
Code:
sudo vpnc office
with the following /etc/vpnc/office.conf file:This is fictional data
Code:
IPSec gateway vpn.office.com
IPSec ID office
IPSec secret 0ff1c3
which worked perfecly.
So i went back to the Network Manager GUI way and i used the same credentials. Same fictional data I got a libnotify message telling me it couldn't connect.Anyone know how i could troubleshoot this issue? Would be great to have it integrated in gnome instead of running a background command which is not tracked by nwm.

I am having a problem with my Fedora11, I am not sure wether it is software or hardware but this looks serious. My computer is running very slow and freezes up every few seconds. Every time I reboot I would get a kernel failure pop-up.
This is what the message says:
Kernel failure message 1:
Kernel failure message 2:

I just built some machines with the Intel 82574L gigabit ethernet chip, loaded Fedora 14, and discovered a problem with the e1000e driver dying after a few minutes. A little time spent perusing the web told me that the same driver had problems in Fedora 12 and Fedora 13 as well. Congrats to Fedora for the hat trick.As of kernel 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64, e1000e driver 1.0.2-k4 still had bugs.[URL]

Since I upgraded to Lucid, I am dealing with serious instabilities related to my wireless card. What happens is that when there is a lot of wireless activity the computer freezes. It is a complete freeze, the mouse stops moving, if something was coming out of the speakers it keeps echoing, and the only solution is to turn off the computer. The bug seems to coincide with the one listed in here
[URL]
My wireless card is Intersil ISL3890/ISL3886. My whole computer is an HP z555. I'm thinking that is should be a bug in the wireless adapter driver, which is p54pci. The only solution I can think of is to blacklist it and set up ndiswrapper. I am not very comfortable with this solution since a native linux driver should be better than ndiswrapper.

I'm I seeing this wrong or is the initrd file in kernel-2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.x86_64 a zero byte file and that's why I can't boot with it( get this "kernel panic not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs on known -block (0,0)" message)

There is already a couple of "freezing" discussions surrounding Fedora 13, but as the problem seems to exist still with Fedora 14 x86_64 I decided to launch another thread.
SYMPTOMS:
* System freezes 'random' running GNOME or KDE (latest versions) - can happen in 10 sec after login, or in 3 hours after login.
* Looks like it does not freeze that often while in 'idle'.
* May reboot by itself or not - may require manual cold-boot.
* a Kernel crash is created with information:
REASON: WARNING: at drivers/pci/search.c:44 ci_find_upstream_pci_bridge+0x55/0x6d()
CONFIGURATION:
* ASUS P7P550 board with 8G RAM, 0-7 Intel Core i7 CPU
* 2 HDDs / SATA, default layout, LUKS
* NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT running with NVIDIA Driver Version 260.19.12, dual monitors.
I've already submitted an KernelOops.
a) fixing b) workaround c) a hardware issue? I have Fedora 14 64-bit running on my Lenovo W700 laptop w. Nvidia drivers as well - not a single problem exists (well, except that loading issue that keeps you moving mouse to work...)

I boot linux from a usb drive so I can carry my distro wherever I go - I've been doing it for quite some time now and it's always worked wonderfully. Problem: This morning my little cousin unplugged the computer WHILE I was booting into linux. Power loss has happened before, but with no ill effects. This time however, it's decided it won't boot. The screen clears, and just as GRUB is about to load, it freezes and the computer reboots over and over.
I booted to a LiveCD of Ubuntu to try and fsck the drive, but it won't mount the volume. I've worked with this install so long, and have customized it so much I **really** don't want to do a reinstall.. What can I do?

I just upgraded Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Now when I use vpnc to connect from the command line using vpnc-connect, I'm not only prompted for my password as usual, but now also being prompted for a "Passcode". Here's what the login attempt looks like:
Enter password for jegan@some.vpnhost.net:
Passcode for VPN jegan@216.23.18.33:
I've been using the same /etc/vpnc/default.conf file for years.Note that I do not have an /etc/vpnc.conf, or any of the other configuration files that vpnc checks for.Here's a modified copy of my /etc/vpnc/default.conf file:

I use VPNC to connect to a Cisco VPN. I am able to connect, but some issues exist when I use SSH. For example, I login through SSH to a computer in the VPN and I execute ls => it works. If I execute ls -la => connection stalls. I think it stalls every time it is supposed to return more content (top, ls /etc).
If I do scp from my end to server => works. If I do scp from server to my end => connection stalls.

I'm trying to setup a VPN using VPNC. All is well and I can create the VPN.
The problem is that CNTLM does not want to connect in the VPN Further more I am not sure what to look for? The logs are empty and CNTLM only reports 502 Parent proxy unreacheable.
How can I trace what the problem is?
My setup:
Ubuntu 10.10 64
CNTLM 0.91~rc6-0ubuntu1.1
VPNC 0.5.3r449-2

Since I installed FC11 vpnc stop working. I get "vpnc: no response from target." I tried running it with "strace" and the reason is a timeout: poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, 4000) = 0 (Timeout)
I tried google and adding "NAT Traversal Mode cisco-udp" to the config file works for some people but not for me Does anyone had experience with vpnc 0.5.3 in FC11?

I have been trying to connect to my University's VPN Server and for some reason vpnc fails. I have configured the vpn settings the same way I did for the past two years. They worked properly on Fedora 12 and 13, but for some reason fails on Fedora 14.
Code:

how nobody else could have run into this in the meantime. [URL] Two friends of mine are having the same issue on Ubuntu-11.4-machines. In short: Connecting to the Cisco-VPN via shell-command "vpnc" works flawlessly, whereas NetworkManager just doesn't connect at all. We had this working in older versions of Fedora/Ubuntu about some months ago...

When I connect to my company's VPN (it's a Cisco), it connects just fine and displays the broadcast message, but once connected I can't ping anything or ssh anywhere. Not on the private network, not on the Internet [URL], nothing. I can still browse the web without difficulties when connected to the VPN, but no ssh or ping. With ping, it properly resolves the host name, but I get 100% packet loss.
Once I disconnect from the VPN, a ping of [URL] works exactly as expected.
I don't have any firewalls set up on this host that I'm aware of (unless something is installed and configured by default).
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10, amd64 build.

Our company uses a customized vpnc (based on and almost the same as vpnc 0.5.3). I first tested it on a Windows host under Virtualbox everything works straight away. But when I want to use it on a Linux host directly it always ends in "No response from target". I have tested this on Fedora 12 and the latest Ubuntu.
I thought of firewall settings but iptables -L on Ubuntu returns an empty list even.

I'm trying to connect to a Cisco VPN at work from Ubuntu 10.10. On earlier versions, I was able to import the config and get it working. In 10.10, though, the best I've gotten is being able to connect to the VPN, see the welcome message, and have packets sent over the tunnel. I don't receive any packets, though.
The command-line vpnc client connects just fine. I found this bug report: [URL]
The symptoms it describes are exactly what I'm seeing. The apparent solution is to "make sure in your config that LZO Compression is enabled (checked) under Advanced"; however I see neither an option for compression nor an "Advanced" tab, button, or anything on my VPN config in Network Manager.

I am having problems accessing my work desktop through my home computer running Fedora 13. I am able to remote into work through MAC and Windows XP. I loaded vpnc and was able to connect to the concentrator. I also able to ping it too. I cannot connect to my desktop using rdesktop. I get error message �Unable to connect, socket is unavailable. I cannot ping to the desktop.

I just got vpnc setup to work with my VPN at work and now I am trying to figure out how to limit the traffic that is routed through the VPN while I'm connected to it. I only want traffic going to the local domain to be routed through the VPN.This is what my vpnc config file looks like:
Code:
IPSec gateway publicdomain.example.com
IPSec ID XXXX

I have just updated my kernel and immediately struck trouble. The kernel update is marked as security update.
When booting I get a multiple warnings " deprecated config file /etc/modprobe...", then "no root device found" followed by "boot has failed, sleeping forever"!Clearly something is amiss with this update, so figured the best thing might be to remove it and wait on a fix, but attempting to remove the kernel via the package manager would cause a whole lot of other packages to be removed as well.Instead, I edited grub.conf, commenting out all the kernel-2.6.34.7-63 lines, so that the default is now the previous kernel (2.6.34.7-61).

I suffered a kernel crash today - then noticed a newer kernel was available, so I updated to it.However, it's since crashed again! Here's the message - can anyone tell me what's going on, is this a known issue or is it bad hardware?

I am having difficulties in establishing a vpn connection using vpnc (or NetworkManaager-vpnc).
As long as the openswan IPsec daemon is running, vpnc-helper quits with the error message
Quote:
Failed to bind to 0.0.0.0:500: Address already in use
[user@computer ...]# vpnc-helper --local--port 0
If I use NetworkManager-vpnc, then establishing the connection simply fails.
Using the --local-port 0 option does not change anything.
If I stop the ipsec service (service ipsec stop) then establishing the connectiong works, both with NetworkManager-vpnc and the console tool, but apparently the network traffic is not routed via the VPN - in my case this means that I cannot access hosts within the vpn and stuff.
Funny thing is - on my notebook from where I connect via WLAN, everything works fine. With Fedora 13 everything works fine, too.
Does anybody have an idea how to enforce that the vpn connection is actually used?
