If the Cisco VPN client connects, but then you can't access anything on the network, you most likely have some kind of routing problem. The VPN client has to decide whether to send traffic through the VPN tunnel or over the local network. This decision is based on the split tunneling settings (as indicated below) and the available/advertised routes on both networks. Generally speaking, if the VPN client has an IP address that is also in the range of a network on the other side (think private addresses), you can have issues--some of which can be mitigated with the split tunneling settings.

Not sure how the Cisco client or Shrewsoft clients work but when I connect to the VPN (using XP's connection) at work I had to uncheck "use default gateway on remote" in advanced tcp/ip settings.... If I have the above checked I cannot reach the internal web sites. If I uncheck -- I can access.
