Caveats Resolved in Release 4.0
This is most commonly seen in an environment where the VPN Client is
behind a NAT device that is using a common private IP address range like
10.x.x.x.

The feature that was added in Release 3.6.2 called “Automatic logoff after
VPN” does not currently work in v4.0.
This feature replaced Start before Logon for some users. It allows a user to
establish a VPN connection first, and then the user is automatically logged
out and the VPN connection is maintained. This allows the user to log into
the Domain during the VPN connection, without the need for a custom GINA
to be installed.

When installing The VPN Client for Mac, version 4.0.int_73 over top of an
earlier version of the VPN Client, it fails to unload the old NKE and load the
new one.
If you are upgrading from an earlier 4.0 version, “kextstat|grep cisco” returns
nothing and returns you to a prompt. If you are upgrading from a 3.7.x VPN
Client, “kextstat | grep cisco” returns both the old NKE and the new one.
If you reboot, the NKE loads correctly.
If you are upgrading from a previous 4.0 VPN Client, re-running the installer
loads the NKE correctly.
Uninstalling the earlier version before installing the new version also works
correctly.

When using a Digital Certificate for VPN Client connections, there is no
indication that your Certificate is about to expire. In previous versions of the
VPN Client, 30 days before the certificate was set to expire, a message would
pop up upon connection stating that your Certificate would expire soon.

The InstallShield version of the 4.0 VPN Client, as well as 3.6 versions, do
NOT detect an existing Cisco IT 3.5(A) VPN Client is installed on your PC
and will install the new version right on top of old one. The VPN Client
REQUIRES the old version to be uninstalled first or else the new installation
may not properly update required files.
