From the VPN Client Log file I saw messages such as. Obviously it was time for some troubleshooting.Īs a first step, I rebooted my Mac, but the Cisco VPN Client was still unhappy – it could not initialize the IKE ports. The An圜onnect VPN Client still worked fine. Some time later, I found out that after installing the Shrew Soft Client, neither the Cisco VPN Client nor the built-in Native Cisco VPN Support would work on my Mac. (This client is a free IPsec client distributed under open source license, to get it to work in the Mac I needed to also install the LGPL Qt Framework and a TUN/TAP driver, but that is another story…)
I regularly use the Cisco VPN Client, the Cisco An圜onnect VPN Client, and the built-in Native Cisco VPN Support on my Mac (I’m currently running Snow Leopard version 10.6.8.) However, a recent customer project led me to install the Shrew Soft VPN Client they supported so that I could access their network through their Netscreen firewall. I use multiple VPN clients, depending on which customer I am supporting on which day.
