/etc/vpnc/ should be chmod 700
and
/etc/vpnc/default.conf should be chmod 600
Otherwise if you run vpnc without sudo you get a not so helpful error message like this:
vpnc: Error binding to source port. Try '--local-port 0'
Failed to bind to 0.0.0.0:500: Permission denied
After changing the permissions as I suggested, you get a more helpful error like this:
vpnc: couldn't open `/etc/vpnc/default.conf': Permission denied |
