I can not get F5Networks firepass SSLVPN to install in Firefox 3. I was able to get it to work with Firefox 2 in Hardy.
Now I can not install Firefox 2 because of a dependency with libhunspell.

The error I get when trying to add the plugin/F5Network/SSLVPN in Firefox 3 is that it never connects.

I managed to manually install F5networks Firepass on Firefox 3, by following attached instructions (put np_F5_SSL_VPN.so in correct folder and unzip SSLVpn.tgz in /usr/local/lib/F5networks).
This worked very well in Fedora 9 and 10, but there seems to be an issue in Ubuntu intrepid ibex. The plugin says I am correctly connected, and I get a correct IP adress, but I can't ping any network resource, and the routes aren't correctly created.
The problem is the same if I install Firefox-2. I think there is a bug in Ubuntu 8.10, but I didn't find any solution, although I have searched in many forums.
