There wouldn't be a point doing so. This just loads the kernel module, |
| 11 |
it doesn't setablish a connection at that point. |

You have to connect using vpnclient itself. You can specify the profile |
| 19 |
then. It's "vpnclient connect profilename" if I remember correctly (for |
| 20 |
profilename.pcf). The kernel module just cares for packet injection in |
| 21 |
Linux's ip stack and brings a IPsec stack. |

Note that there's a more elegant solution with "vpnc" (also in |
| 24 |
portage), if it fits for you (still hasn't some functions of Cisco's |
| 25 |
client, but it's free and you don't have to use a binary proprietary |
| 26 |
kernel module). |
