You can use vpnc to connect to Cisco VPN concentrators. Much nicer than the

infact i got a sattelite based internet service (only download, upload from dialup) from www.planetsky.com. they require me to connect to their server through vpn. in windows xp i simply create a vpn connection and it connects to their server nicely. now i want to switch to linux. but i dont know how to connect with vpn (i know how to connect to dialup in linux)
