Yes, I use it almost every day. Currently I am running it with kernel
2.6.7-1.459 (i686).

Is your BinDirPath set correctly in vpnclient.ini? If nothing else helps
you might want to enable logging. :)

The release notes mention that SMP kernels are not supported with the
VPN client. You might want to refer to the release notes for more information.

If you are able to build your own rpms (relatively easy), you can grab the
kernel-module-ciscovpn*.nosrc.rpm from <http://www.a51.org/sw/fedora/> and
play with it.
