No, vpnc is not the same as cisco's vpn client.

vpnc is an open source implementation of cisco's vpn client.

There are pros and cons for both.

To compile cisco's client:

Untar the file.
cd vpnclient
make

Look at the filename when it stops, edit the file and
remove the line containing:

#include <linux/config.h>

Run make again, edit the file when it stops, etc.

When it compiles without problems, you can run the
normal installation script.
