However, it does not work with the latest versions of the Linux kernel so if you user's kernel is recent (and unfortunately, "recent" doesn't really have to be very recent) then the official Cisco VPN Client is not an option. However, there is an open source VPN client that works with Cisco VPN headends. I personally use and it works great: http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~massar/vpnc/ It's included in pretty much all Linux distributions. A quick Google search for "centos vpnc" turned this up as the first hit: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/vpnc Hope this helps.
