  3. Console stops displaying logs after clicking on menu Tools > Reset IKE.
  4. VPN tunnel does not open with "Error 307" when the remote network mask contains specific value (e.g. 255.255.254.0, 255.255.252.0,…).
  5. DNS/WINS addresses might not be configured properly when VPN client address is configured to 0.0.0.0

Known issues:

  2. No Gina on Windows 64 bit Vista and Seven. Gina connection panel may appear with 5-8 seconds delay on Windows XP.
  3. Wireshark must be installed after VPN client software to be able to scan its interface.
  4. Exporting a VPN configuration to a mapped drive is not possible. No error message is displayed, and the file is not exported. A work around would be to export to the local disk, and then copy to mapped drive.
