Release Notes for VPN Client, Release 4.0 through Release 4.0.5.D
OL-5450-10
Wait a minute. If the PC is still not responding, press the reset button. When the
PC reboots, it should not run through ScanDisk, indicating the shutdown was
successful in closing all open files. This problem may occur on some PCs and not
on others, and we are looking for a solution. Windows 98 shutdown has numerous
issues, as can be seen the following Microsoft Knowledge Base Article:
“Q238096 - How to Troubleshoot Windows 98 Second Edition Shutdown
Problems” (CSCdt00729).
Windows 2000 (only) Requires Adding Client for MS Networks for Dialup Connections
For the Cisco VPN Client running on a Windows 2000 system, you cannot access
Microsoft resources unless you add the Client for Microsoft Networks for the
Dial-up adapter.
Aladdin Runtime Environment (RTE) Issue with Windows NT and Windows 2000
Using versions of the Aladdin Runtime Environment (RTE) on Windows NT and
Windows 2000 can cause the following behavior. The login prompt that is posted
by the Aladdin etoken when connecting the VPN Client can get hidden in the
background. If this happens, the VPN connection can timeout and fail with the
following event:
“System Error: Connection Manager failed to respond.”
A side effect of this is that the VPN Client’s service and dialer might become out
of synch, and the PC might need to be restarted (CSCdv47999). To avoid this
issue, use the Aladdin Runtime Environment (RTE) version 2.65 or later.
Microsoft MSN Installation
Microsoft’s MSN installation fails if you have already installed the VPN Client.
Uninstall the VPN Client before you install MSN. After MSN has completed
installation, you can install the VPN Client.
WINS Information Might Not Be Removed from Windows Servers If Not Disconnected Before Shutdown
If the VPN Concentrator is configured to send WINS server addresses down to the
VPN Client and the PC is shut down or restarted without first disconnecting the
VPN Client, the WINS servers are not removed from the network properties. This
might cause local PC registration and name resolution problems while not
connected with VPN.
