Hi Mark and Akemi
thanks for your prompt responses.
Right! The Cisco VPN user's guide says:
"The VPN Client for Linux does not support kernel Version 2.5 prior t=
o
VPN Client Release 4.0.1.A and
does not support SMP (multiprocessor) kernels in any release of the V=
PN
Client."
But there used to be kernel.*.rpm and kernel-smp.*.rpm
for download. Is there such a thing for SL-5.1
Here is the compilation error:

Why do you think the above error is because of SMP?

Hello
I have noticed that there is no SMP kernel in the
repositories. Is this right?
How can I choose between SMP and no SMP kernel during the
installation?
It seems that the installation picked the SMP version
automatically, but I do not want it because I have some
modules that do not compile with it (Cisco VPN)
Thanks for your help
Fernando

hi Fernando,

If you want, you can post your compile errors here.
I have never seen a situation where smp support caused a compile=
failure.
Its very interesting, thanks

Looks like the Release Notes (even the latest) for Cisco VPN says "=
SMP
kernels are not supported". I suppose the only way to get a non-sm=
p
(UP) kernel is to recompile from the source. I have done this befo=
re
but with an earlier version of the kernel. I heard that more recen=
t
version had some issue when rebuilding.

I wonder if you *must* use Cisco VPN ...
