Anyone using the Cisco VPN client for OSX? Our school just got its
wireless network up and running. It needs the Cisco client to connect.
I can connect, but after disconnecting (either manually or through my
iBook's going to sleep), I can't re-connect without a reboot or user
logout.

Any suggestions before I start the tedious process of complaining to
our IT department and being told repeatedly to Get a Dell, Dude.

The Cisco VPN client doesn't work any better on Windows. It's a hack.

You can try killing and relaunching the Cisco daemons. I'm not sure
where they are or how they're launched, though. An updated client might
help too.

What version are you using? What version of OS X?

I use 4.0.3 and connect/disconnect without problem, many times a day.

Ditto here, no problems for me. Worked right out of the box just fine.
