Problems installing Cisco vpn

492863Mar 28 2007 — edited Mar 31 2007
I am using the file vpnclient-4.8-orcl-hybrid.tar.gz to install the vpn 4.8. I have upgraded Oracle Enterpise Linux to the most current version today using "yum upgrade", and installed the sourcecode by running "yum install kernel-source"

I get the error: Failed to make module "cisco_ipsec.ko".

I also tried the rpm file, but also had no luck. Any idea? What should I check.

Regards,
Richard Catlin

When I type ./oracle_install.sh, I get the following output:
