Cisco vpn with Core 2 2.6.5 kernel

[Brian Anderson]

Go to the web site link and there is a Cisco scrambled secret decoder.  
Worked for me:  I quickly got the unencrypted secret and am up and 
running with vpnc.  Seems to be much more stable than vpnclient and it 
is much more managable because it doesn't do Cisco's silly hidden 
implementation.
