Cisco AnyConnect Software and 10.6.8 problems

Apparently some users have had problems with Cisco AnyConnect Software and 10.6.8. It seems that after installing the newest OS, that CAC has problems getting and staying connected. This software has had problems for some people for several years, and here are some solutions to fix them that have worked for others.

  1. Upgrade your version of Bonjour or disable it. This can be a problem for machines that are 10.6.3 or earlier.
  2. Use Ligion to restart the Cisco VPN service. Google this term and you will come up with the command used for this.
  3. Uninstall and reinstall the software. This seems to fix it for some people.
  4. Disable third-party software like Anti-virus software, firewalls or programs like Little Snitch.
  5. Disable or better yet, uninstall old versions of Cisco VPN software.

How to create an Ubuntu live USB for both Mac and PC | Linux on your Apple Mac | iLinux. Running Linux on Mac hardware was disappointing for me in the past. Perhaps it has gotten better. The problem was that the hardware support wasn’t there, so making an internet connection was problematic.

ARogan: PS3 Hard Drive Upgrade and Yellow Dog Linux. Interesting that they chose YDL. I tried it on a PowerPC mac many years ago and it worked but it wasn’t very useable. I wonder how many PS3 owners are using other operating systems on it?

VMware KB: Sharing a virtual machine between users in Mac OS. Nice step by step on how to accomplish this. It may not be a good idea to do this in practice however. I can see the situation where the security of the VM is compromised and it isn’t clear whose responsibility it is.
