Package: vpnc Version: 0.5.3r449-2 Severity: normal Sorry, i had some problems sending this report via thunderbird. Hope reportbug works now.
There seems to be the same/similar problem with the vpnc when i'm connected via wlan at our university and try to start a vpn connection. When i start the vpnc i get this error: --------------------------------------- Usage: ip link add link DEV [ name ] NAME [ txqueuelen PACKETS ] [ address LLADDR ] [ broadcast LLADDR ] [ mtu MTU ] type TYPE [ ARGS ] ip link delete DEV type TYPE [ ARGS ] ip link set DEVICE [ { up | down } ] [ arp { on | off } ] [ dynamic { on | off } ] [ multicast { on | off } ] [ allmulticast { on | off } ] [ promisc { on | off } ] [ trailers { on | off } ] [ txqueuelen PACKETS ] [ name NEWNAME ] [ address LLADDR ] [ broadcast LLADDR ] [ mtu MTU ] [ netns PID ] [ alias NAME ] ip link show [ DEVICE ] TYPE := { vlan | veth | vcan | dummy | ifb | macvlan | can } SIOCSIFMTU: invalid argument ------------------------------------- and the mtu of tun0 is set to 1500. When i comment out the whole "if [-n "%INTERNAL_IP4_MTU" block and just use MTU=1412 the error is gone. After that i have tried Philipp solution and it works too, no error is shown and the mtu is set to 1412. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-12-atom (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages vpnc depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcrypt11 1.4.5-2 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libgnutls26 2.8.6-1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr Versions of packages vpnc recommends: ii iproute 20100224-5 networking and traffic control too Versions of packages vpnc suggests: pn resolvconf <none> (no description available) -- Configuration Files: /etc/vpnc/example.conf [Errno 13] Keine Berechtigung: u'/etc/vpnc/example.conf' /etc/vpnc/vpnc-script [Errno 13] Keine Berechtigung: u'/etc/vpnc/vpnc-script' -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
