Hi!

Right now I try to setup a VPN connect with the cisco VPN adapter to
$private_network.
I had to choose TCP tunnel in cisco.

Before I activated the VPN, OpenAFS service was running and I got a tok=
en.
I started the VPN, got connected and a private subnet IP, NO access to
the outer net, disconnected and OpenAFS was dead afterwards. Token was
gone, Authentication "program" didn=B4t show up.
Service just hung...

"hung" is such a technical term.  It tells me absolutely nothing about
what behavior you are seeing or what the problem is.

As your Cisco VPN connection didn't work, perhaps the place to start is
figuring out why.  That might explain what happened to your network
configuration that is preventing you from communicating with the AFS
client service.

I suspect your problem is in trying to initiate the AFS session PRIOR to the VPN connection. Or, at least it's a point to start trouble-shooting.

You might want to try killing your AFS service, starting your VPN connection, then start the AFS service back up. Generate your tokens, and see if things work as expected.

Or, get your VPN service to start up prior to login, so AFS service is starting up with the IP address the VPN is providing.

If AFS doesn't work starting it up after VPN connection, then I'm not sure. However, I've run AFS on systems with VPN client connected. And, starting service AFTER I'd connected VPN, it worked fine.
