My laptop never freezes and I'll be connected with the VPN client the entire day sometimes. I'm running 4.9.01(0100) with OS X 10.5.5. I've used previous versions with OS X 10.4.10 and 10.4.11 along with 10.5 through 10.5.5 and never experienced any lockups with the Cisco VPN client. Do you have any other type of software like Parallels or VMWare Fusion installed? I think I've heard of some odd conflicts with similar programs. I've tried the trials and never saw anything, but don't have them installed on my MBP currently. Maybe it's a combination of network driver in OS X and the Cisco VPN client. I'm always using the Airport Extreme (en1 in my system). I also run IPv6, but I doubt that has any bearing on it.
Regarding the domain search list, I think I overlooked something very simple. It does indeed add it to my domain and search list in /etc/resolv.conf... what I was overlooking is I usually connect to FreeBSD machines that don't exist in the same search suffix where I modified my workstation to include this suffix. Nevermind on that. I'll have to add another domain if I can. It's on an old VPN 3002 concentrator. -Vinny ________________________________________ From: Mark Tinka [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 03, 2008 9:36 PM To: Vinny Abello Cc: Ryan Wilkins; [email protected] Subject: Re: [c-nsp] Cisco VPN Client Causes Mac OS X Crash On Thursday 04 December 2008 07:06:13 Vinny Abello wrote: > Works great for me on OS X 10.5.5... also on a MBP.

It only seems to happen when the client is connected to the VPN server, but not, necessarily, when it's merely open and unconnected. There have been a number of reports on this issue (albeit in slightly earlier versions of OS X): http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060920100339745 I'm just not sure if these issues have propagated to 10.5.5. It would be nice if Cisco released newer versions of this code as often as they did for other OS's. > Now if I could get the VPN > client to add the domain suffix to my search order each > time I connect, it would be perfect.

Works fine for me - we use EasyVPN: conf t crypto isakmp client configuration group foo domain bar.com It automatically gets added to my search list and system domain name each time I connect (and removed when I disconnect).
