In the vpnclient directory there should be a file called "vpn_install". Did you execute that file or try to compile it manually? This script will setup the directory structure and start the compile.

./vpn_install as root

Same problem here. Also SuSE Linux 9.1. And yes this error occours with the ./vpn_install.

Testes on the newest mandrake distribution, running fine. This must be a SuSE failure, but have anyone a workaround?

Thanks to Cisco. It's fixed in 4.0.4.B
