iOS 5 and vpn

mdl1
Hello,
I upgraded an iphone to iOS 5 and since Then I cannot connect my vpn. The connection is refused saying it cannot validate the server certificate. I tried with another ipad ios4 and it works perfectly. 
Any feedback on this issue is much appreciated.

    ID19305 8.202 Cisco VPN connection is no longer working with iPhone/iPad running iOS 5
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Description:  In iOS 5 (both iPhone/iPad) Apple made some new changes
                  within the Cisco IPsec connection handling. Certificates
                  with 1024 bit are no longer supported.
                  
                  Because of this the Cisco IPSec connection is no longer
                  working.
    Workaround:   Create a new server-certificate at the Remote Access /
                  Certificate-Management:
                  
                  *Keysize: 2048 Bit
                  
                  *VPN ID Type/VPN ID: depends on the configuration,
                  hostname or ip-address.
                  
                  *Common Name: fill in the hostname or ip-address, depends
                  on the Override hostname setting (Remote Access / Cisco
                  VPN Client / iOS devices) or the hostname of the ASG.
                  
                  Finally choose this certificate in Remote Access / Cisco
                  VPN Client / Global.

    My phones an Android, so I'm unable to test.
