I still have the same behavior with vpnc. I can connect to the remote server, but as soon as the connection is authenticated and I am connected, my local NIC looses all connectivity to the internet... it's like someone hits the off switch on the network card. I can only wake it back up by cycling the card down and back up again... which then drops my vpn connection to the remote server.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Perhaps, isn't it this? https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=134480
Possibly.... not 100% sure. I was tinkering with it again last night. I was able to connect, and this time I left the connection open... after a rather long time my network connection came back. I had limited connectivity... very limited, but it was working, and ALL network traffic was being routed through the VPN connection. That's the next thing I need to look into... I need/want to route only some network traffic through the VPN connection, and the rest via my own ISP. I have no idea though why after negotiating a connection that it takes several minutes for the NIC to return to an "alive" state....
