Re: ubuntu 9.04 username/pass authentication
Mike,
DNS should be ok
Check /etc/resolv.conf, you should have the proper DNS settings in place.
What is still missing in current vpnc-nortel is default domain.
You can use full network name (host.domain.com) to enquire DNS, should work.
Try also this attached patch to get default domain info during login.
I was sure I already posted it, but seems not.
