vpnc gets killed after a few minutes

Hi,
I installed VPNC and configured as given at the link : http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.c … o-VPNs.htm.
I invoke vpnc using

sudo vpnc default.conf --enable-1des

The output says

VPNC started in background (pid: 3156)...

I use Krdc to connect
I can connect and work for a few minutes. But suddenly the vpnc process no longer exists. Do you people see any problem or any debug suggestions?

Thanks and Regards

Re: vpnc gets killed after a few minutes

This happens to me sometimes too. Not very often though.
I just always put it down to the vpn server. It never bothered me enough to look any further into it.
You could try passing --debug {1,2,3,99}

Re: vpnc gets killed after a few minutes

I have this trouble, and the only good answer I've found is to disable idle detection

Add this line to your config file:
DPD idle timeout (our side) 0
or
specify it on the command line:
--dpd-idle 0


Only problem is that I have to manually kill vpnc whenever I change network connections.

Hope this helps,
Dustin
