VPNC VPN Client for Linux

BarryG
Has anyone used VPNC to connect from a Linux PC to Astaro?

I'm interested because I already have it working with our Cisco VPN, and it integrates nicely into the Gnome NetworkManager on Fedora, which doesn't currently seem to be the case for PPTP.

Supported Authentications: Pre-Shared-Key + XAUTH, Pre-Shared-Key
Supported IKE DH-Groups: dh1 dh2 dh5
Supported Hash Algo (IKE/IPSEC): md5 sha1
Supported Encryptions (IKE/IPSEC): (null) (1des) 3des aes128 aes192 aes256
Perfect Forward Secrecy: nopfs dh1 dh2 dh5



If not, what do people use? PPTP with scripts?
Is there an OpenSSL VPN client that is easy to setup?
Is OpenSwan still very complex to setup?

Running ASL 6 and 7, btw.

Thanks,
Barry

    I've not used that one... but I have used the Kvpnc client:  http://home.gna.org/kvpnc/en/index.html

    I got it working with the SSL VPN and the IPSEC vpn available on the Astaro.
    My test workstation for it was an OpenSuse 10.2 w/ the KDE shell loaded... though it should work with any Linux system with the KDE shell.
