Re: vpnc can't connect now

[Brian Millett <bmillett gmail com>]

A follow up to this.

The site requires rsa securid.  I do have a /etc/vpnc/fni-stl.conf file so I ran vpns 
fni-stl and got the following:

Enter password for bmillett ffp51511ext fni-stl com:
Wait for token to change,..then enter the new tokencode:

So I guess NetworkManager-vpnc does not provide entering a new token?

Once it is up using vpnc client, is there anything else I need to do with NetworkManager?

thanks.
