[Vpn-help] 2.1.4 VPN Client on Vista 64 Failure

[Sinclair, Alan [Fugro]]

Hello,

We had some success trying version 2.1.4 on XP when connecting to
various CheckPoint Firewall One firewalls.

Version 2.1.5-rc-2 of the VPN client compiled on Fedora 11 also worked
Ok to these same CheckPoint FireWall One firewalls, albeit 2.1.4 didn't
want to compile on F11.

Installing 2.14 on Vista 64 Business Edition failed.

The client did not install when UAC was running, when UAC was disabled
and after a reboot the VPN client software installed.

After installation the PC would not connect the network, neither using a
cable nor using wireless.

Uninstall resulted in a BSOD and the PC would not boot cleanly after
that.

Recovery involved F8 then restore to a previous restore point, then
manual deselect of the ShrewSoft items on the network connector.

Are there any known or similar issues  when running 2.1.4 on Vista 64,
or were we just very unlucky ?

Best Regards 
Alan
