NetworkManager, Vpnc and Centos 5.3 Problem.

[Abdullah Teke <ateke.groups@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi;
I have Centos 5.3 on my labtop and have to vpn a cisco vpn
server. So i installed vpnc on my box. Then i want to integrate with
NetworkManager and vpnc so i also installed NetworkManager-vpnc 7.0. I
configured vpn connection and tried to connect. It looks like it
connected but when i try to login my server at behind of the vpn
server, i cant reach them. I check the routes and it looks like at
below.

[root@localhost sysconfig]# route
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx   10.15.1.1       255.255.255.255 UGH   0      0        0 eth0
10.255.0.136    *               255.255.255.248 U     0      0        0 tun0

10.15.0.0       *               255.255.0.0     U     1      0        0 eth0
default         *               0.0.0.0         U     0      0        0 tun0

When i check the log files everthing seems ok at all.

Then i tried at the console and run the vpnc command and enter the vpn information from command line like below it is worked 

[root@localhost sysconfig]# vpnc
Enter IPSec gateway address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Enter IPSec ID for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: xxx
Enter IPSec secret for xxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Enter username for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: xxx-xxx

Enter password for xxx-xxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
VPNC started in background (pid: 19071)...

I
can reach my servers. There isnt any error while try with
networkmanager vpnc, but it cant connect actually When i looked at
routes again. It is shown the same values. Any idea?
