This has let me totally perplexed for the last couple of weeks
. I need to connect to this client from my home network who uses Cisco IP Sec. I am using Mac's inbult VPN client via netwrok settings to setup my my VPN.
Everything seems to be setup OK, but when I click on connect I get a dialogue box asking me to "Enter your user authentication" with just two buttons "Cancel" and "OK". There is no place to enter any information. If you click on OK, it attempts to connect for a while before it times-out with a message saying "The negotiation with the VPN server failed. Verify the server address and try reconnecting."
I have one more Cisco IPSec VPN connection on the same machine (iMac) for a different client, which just works like a charm. No issues.
Also both the Cisco VPN connections work just fine when I connect using a windows machine.
I have endlessly searched Blogs, forums, usergorups etc without help. Though I have seen similar issues, not been able to find any solutions that actually work.
I am really hopefully that someone must have encountered a similar issue and must have solved it. Any help or pointers would be really appreciated
Are there any other VPN clients available for the xOS systems I could use with Cisco IPSec?
