Cisco VPN Question


4 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I just installed Snow Leopard on an i5 machine and everything works great but I am having issues trying to get my cisco vpn client to work. This is definitely an issue with their software see:

There are a bunch of ways to go about trying to fix it, but I can't get any of them to work. What has me curious though is that since cisco installs a kext that it uses for this process, is it possible that the reason why its not working is the fact that I have a hackintosh? I ask because I get an error like this:

(kernel) Kext com.cisco.nke.ipsec not found for unload request.

Failed to unload com.cisco.nke.ipsec - (libkern/kext) not found.

Starting Cisco Systems VPN Driver

/System/Library/Extensions/CiscoVPN.kext failed to load - (libkern/kext) requested architecture/executable not found; check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8).

 

 

What do you think? Is this a standard Cisco problem or could it be related to my build?

Thanks for your help!

Current version does not support x64 architecture. You will have to boot into 32 bit in view to use the Cisco VPN client.

However, if your network support IPSec over TCP, you can use snow leopard build-in client.

Oh that was totally it. Thank you so much!

I've been running into the same problem. However, my snow leopard Network Connection is not working on the Mac, either on 32 bit or 64 bit.

 

However, I am able to use the Cisco client on the 32bit Macbook Pro and it works fine.

 

I'm guessing a bug may have been introduced during the latest round of patches. The 32 bit Macbook has been working for a long time, and no changes have been made.

 

Anyone see this?
