Unless you really need the cisco client, I'd recommend using vpnc
instead.  Vpnc is an open source project that implements the Cicso
protocol.  I've had good success with it and poor success with Cisco's
module.  For starters, last time I checked, cisco doesn't do 64 bit or
multi-processing.  I keep expecting that to change.
