Just wanted to add, when I use vpnc-connect I get the following routes when connected (note, different site though, and i'm on a different network right now..) I connect using 'sudo vpnc-connect /path/to/profile.conf' ----------------------------------------------------- nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ route -ne Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 192.192.193.192 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 192.168.1.100 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 192.168.2.100 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 193.4.252.190 10.177.22.254 255.255.255.255 UGH 1500 0 0 wlan0 192.168.39.100 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 192.193.194.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 192.192.193.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 192.192.192.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 10.0.40.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 10.177.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 0.0.0.0 10.177.22.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0 nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ ping google.is PING google.is (74.125.77.104) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from ew-in-f104.google.com (74.125.77.104): icmp_seq=1 ttl=247 time=56.6 ms 64 bytes from ew-in-f104.google.com (74.125.77.104): icmp_seq=2 ttl=247 time=55.3 ms 64 bytes from ew-in-f104.google.com (74.125.77.104): icmp_seq=3 ttl=247 time=56.7 ms ^C --- google.is ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2003ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 55.341/56.261/56.773/0.651 ms nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ ------------------------------------- For comparison, I connected to the same site using NM and get the fubar routes (note that it's missing even all the routes that are given by the other end-point[router]) As you can see, the routes are a bit different, and I believe that this is what is needs to be fixed. (i'll come up with a patch if I get the time to debug this). ------------------------------------- nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ route -ne Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 10.177.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 0.0.0.0 10.177.22.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0 nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ route -ne Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 192.168.1.100 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 193.4.252.190 10.177.22.254 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 wlan0 192.168.2.100 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 192.168.39.100 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 192.193.194.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 192.192.193.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 192.192.192.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 10.0.40.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 10.177.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 tun0 nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ ping google.is PING google.is (72.14.221.104) 56(84) bytes of data. ^C --- google.is ping statistics --- 7 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 6046ms nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ route -ne Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 10.177.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 0.0.0.0 10.177.22.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0 nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$ ping google.is PING google.is (72.14.221.104) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from fg-in-f104.google.com (72.14.221.104): icmp_seq=1 ttl=247 time=72.3 ms 64 bytes from fg-in-f104.google.com (72.14.221.104): icmp_seq=2 ttl=247 time=63.8 ms ^C --- google.is ping statistics --- 2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1001ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 63.801/68.068/72.335/4.267 ms nikkiclau@ubuntu:~$
