Package: vpnc Version: 0.4.0-2 Severity: important Hello,
the dead peer detection patch is probably wrong. This problem is mentioned on the vpnc homepage as "vpnc looses connection with some targets, even before the rekey-timer expires most probably due bugs with keepalive, dead-peer-detection or something else...". The problem is that vpnc exits with "connection terminated by dead peer detection" even though the peer is alive and the connection is ok. A very small packet loss is enough to trigger it. Also, unplugging the cable for more than a few seconds makes it quit as well. This is a nonsense, removing the patch makes it work fine. The patch should be either removed or the feature should be made optional. In my case, the behaviour is more than unwanted. Even if it worked fine with small packet loss, I'd like to be able to unplug the cable for e.g. 2 minutes and be able to continue the work then. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-rc4-git20070324 Locale: LANG=cs_CZ, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ (charmap=ISO-8859-2) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
