There is a Cisco VPN client available for 2.6 kernels, but only
as far as I am aware for x86 and x86_64 machines.
Here's the Cisco page:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/vpn/client/
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/secursw/ps2308/index.html
It doesn't compile for some later kernel versions, but patches are
available here:

Also found a howto:
http://www.longren.org/2007/05/17/how-to-cisco-vpn-client-on-ubuntu-704-feisty-fawn/
While I do use this vpn client, I don't use it for connection
to usyd.
