Nortel VPN Client

Hey group,

Has anyone gotten the Nortel VPN Client to work under Fedora Core 2?
It works under Red Hat 8/9.  It is an app that has two binary only
kernel modules and one binary only program named nleac.  It connect
allows me to make a VPN connection to my work to a Nortel Contivity VPN.
I compiled it from source and also tried to rebuild the SRPM with no
luck.  It compiles fine since Nortel does what NVidia does and just has
a small wrapper that gets compiled around the binary modules.  I
exported CC=gcc32 but that didn't help.  The modules load fine with a
message about tainting the kernel.  However, one they are loaded, no
network activity works on any interface.  netstat -a just hangs.  As
soon as I remove the two Nortel modules, eth0 begins to function again.

Any help would be appreciated,

Jim Drabb
