This may provide some clues as to what is going wrong. Alas, this is a multi-boot system where the Linux OS is installed - so no chance of that :-( I've just determined that it might not be a problem with vpnc..,as such. I got an ethernet connection to work just now, so it looks as if its just down to now vpnc is handling my wifi interface, for some reason. As I said originally, this **was** working, and now its stopped for some reason. I'm now fairly certain that its not got anything to do with vpnc natively, as I used the same vpnc conf file to successfully access the office over ethernet. I'll keep at it.., Thanks for your assistance!
