    vpn no longer working with kernel 2.6.22-16-generic

    Hi all,

    I have vpn installed which was happily working until the recent kernel upgrade to 2.6.22-16-generic. When it did work (under 2.6.22-15-generic), here is how it looked:

    =============================================

    root@wraith:/home# vpn
    Cisco Systems VPN Client Version 4.8.01 (0640)
    Copyright (C) 1998-2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
    Client Type(s): Linux
    Running on: Linux 2.6.22-15-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 21 23:47:12 GMT 2008 i686
    Config file directory: /etc/opt/cisco-vpnclient

    Initializing the VPN connection.
    Contacting the gateway at XXX.X.XX.XX
    User Authentication for IPAC_VPN...

    Enter Username and Password.

    Username []: XXXXXXXX
    Passcode []:
    Authenticating user.
    Negotiating security policies.
    Securing communication channel.

    Your VPN connection is secure.

    VPN tunnel information.
    Client address: XXX.X.XXX.XXX
    Server address: XXX.X.XX.XX
    Encryption: 128-bit AES
    Authentication: HMAC-SHA
    IP Compression: None
    NAT passthrough is active on port UDP 4500
    Local LAN Access is disabled

    ==========================================

    where I have replaced various bits with X's of course. Now, with 2.6.22-16-generic, I encounter the following:

    ========================================

    root@wraith:/home# vpn
    Cisco Systems VPN Client Version 4.8.01 (0640)
    Copyright (C) 1998-2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
    Client Type(s): Linux
    Running on: Linux 2.6.22-16-generic #1 SMP Mon Nov 24 18:28:27 GMT 2008 i686
    Config file directory: /etc/opt/cisco-vpnclient

    Could not attach to driver. Is kernel module loaded?
    The application was unable to communicate with the VPN sub-system.

    ========================================

    Anyone else encounter this issue for vpn on a kernel upgrade. Anyone have a solution?

    Thanks,

    Stephen
