vpnc tunnels works mostly well, but times to times go down and needs to be reestablished manually or by some sort of script. It is annoying. There present in package script which handle all connects and disconnects and may be easily may be grow to daemon with reconnect support. I have found this good post https://mknowles.com.au/wordpress/2009/05/03/persistent-vpnc-connections/ . It is Debian specific and SysV oriented, but all concepts clear and may be easy adopted for Fedora. I'm ready help with it if needed. Please provide vpnc systemd service capability.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19
just for the record: There is a systemd unit file from Gentoo: https://github.com/gentoo/vpnc/blob/2af29eb2c26a98d270645dc185a8a34e269abd2b/systemd/vpnc%40.service
prevent future auto-closing as this is a new feature and thus not tied to a particular Fedora version.
actually this should be "NEW" as far as I can see (assignment not done by assignee)
