Hi All - Where I work uses the Shrew Soft VPN client to access remote resources. I have found pre-built rpms for EL5, various versions of Fedora, and appropriate packages for non-rpm based distros but no rpm for EL6. I have downloaded the source from Shrew Soft and built "my own" which built and installed with no errors but then didn't work. I'm finally taking the lack of pre-built rpms for EL6 as a clue that there is some sort of inherent problem getting this VPN client working under EL6. Is there a problem with Shrew Soft and EL6? If so, are there any work-arounds? Background: I also have the Shrew Soft VPN client (rpm installed) for FC16 running on my FC16 box on the same network as my EL6 box so I have a known working configuration and know that there are no firewall issues. This same configuration and user connects under EL6 (confirmed on the VPN server) but is unusable (e.g., I can't ping known systems). Thanks, Dave
