VPNC for some reason keeps disconnecting me after a period of time. I've tried timing it to see how long it takes and it seems to be everytime after 24 minutes.
After being disconnected I have no internett connection as my /etc/resolv.conf is still the same as it should be when connect to vpnc. If I try vpnc-disconnect it only sais "no vpnc found running". I have to take eth0 dow and up, then manually edit the /etc/resolv.conf to get a proper network connection.
My settings are the following:
IPSec gateway xx.xx.xx.xx
IPSec ID anonymized
IPSec secret anonymized
#IKE Authmode hybrid
Xauth username myUsername
DPD idle timeout (our side) 0
I also tried having a ping running continuously. I have streams and music playing continuously as well, but it still disconnects me.
This is working fine without disconnects on windows.
EDIT. More info: Ive added log from my /var/log/syslog of what happens when I am disconnected:
I connect first:
Jul 24 14:03:09 cad-unix NetworkManager[1086]: SCPlugin-Ifupdown: devices added
path: /sys/devices/virtual/net/tun0, iface: tun0)
Jul 24 14:03:09 cad-unix NetworkManager[1086]: SCPlugin-Ifupdown: device added
(path: /sys/devices/virtual/net/tun0, iface: tun0): no ifupdown configuration found.
Then I am disconnected after 24 minutes:
Jul 24 14:27:29 cad-unix avahi-daemon[1089]: Withdrawing workstation service for tun0.
Jul 24 14:27:29 cad-unix NetworkManager[1086]: SCPlugin-Ifupdown: devices removed
(path: /sys/devices/virtual/net/tun0, iface: tun0)
Edit: Tweaked the question a bit for better reading. Also now specifying that the problem happens at 24 minutes everytime.
Edit: Version Im running: vpnc version 0.5.3
Edit: After compiling version 0.5.1 I now recieve one more entry in the log file: vpnc[16364]: connection terminated by peer
Last edit I guess: Im desperate. Open for any suggestion. Even changing to another linux distro is an option if it is Ubuntu which is the problem.

This should dump everything except authentication data, but please go over it and make sure that no keys or passwords are being exposed.--no-detach
as well.
