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

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

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