Default [Q] VPNC issue on Streak

I installed 1.6.1 on my Streak. tun.ko now comes with it and I can actually use insmod to register/test it. But VPN Client when establishing connection, just keeps trying to connect and never completes the connection.

Any help would be appreciated. Any bone is worth chasing after.

Cheers.

Are you using the vpnc gui client? If so, you need to make sure the route and ifconfig commands are working properly at the command line. I have found that the toolbox route and ifconfig don't work correctly for this client so I remove them and then make sure I have links for busybox route and ifconfig. HTH.

Yes, I am using VPNC gui (vpnc from code.google.com). But my prob is more elementary such as

if I run insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko, I get an {Error Execution}.

Default Resolved

For everyone's info, I got the problem solved. There is some kind of incompatibility between VPNC and Busybox 1.17.2. I had to downgrade to 1.17.1 and the problem has resolved.
