Peppie: here are some notes on how to install, configure and run the Cisco vpn client 4.8 on openSUSE 10.3.
First make sure that you are running kernel 2.6.22.13-0.3. Earlier versions of the kernel gave us problems during compile. Check your kernel version with:
# uname -r
Download version 4.8 of the client. You can download it from here: http://helpdesk.ugent.be/vpn/download/vpnclient-linux-x86_64-4.8.00.0490-k9.tar.gz. Earlier and later versions gave us problems and were not working. Our advice is to stick to version 4.8 for now.
Extract the downloaded file.
Download a patch for this client.
# wget http://tuxx-home.at/projects/cisco-vpnclient/vpnclient-linux-2.6.22.diff
Apply the patch:
# cd vpnclient
# patch -i ../vpnclient-linux-2.6.22.diff
Install the client:
# sudo ./vpn_install
Start the vpn service:
# sudo /etc/init.d/vpnclient_init start
Now you should be able to start the vpn service by:
# vpnclient connect yourPCFfile

I have used both vpn would be wary of SurfBouncer.
For one, a Google search shows the few pages of hits are all at eBay. This appears to be an attempt to rig the Google search. I didn't find any reviews of the service in the first few pages of Google results. Their own web site has no links to independent reviews of the service.
They are using the domain hotspotvpn.org which seems shady since they compete with hotspotvpn.com.
Finally, nowhere on their website does it say anything about the company or the people behind it. There is no About Us page. Not even a mailing address. I know nothing about the people or company behind HotSpotVPN either. I have spoken to people at Witopia though and got good vibes.
I believe everybody should browse on it.
