I am by far not a VPNC expert, but I do not see the port in the vpnc config
file... I am not at a place with my config file, so I am not sure of the
port synax but might be worth a look around and see if that could be it.
"vpnc: no response from target"
Error just seems like it can not connect to the vpn server.
