I have a 64 bit Windows Server 2008 machine that I want to run the Cisco Systems VPN Client 5 on.

It will not run because it says it does not support 32 bit. Is there a way to fire this off under 32 bit mode? Is there such a thing as 32 bit mode?

(I know there are similar questions out there, but I read through them and none of them worked for me.)

  • Can you explain your situation more detailed? Why did the solutions in http://serverfault.com/questions/5221/64-bit-cisco-vpn-client-ipsec did not work? –  Jun 16 '09 at 22:07

The Cisco VPN client is not compatible with 64 bit version of windows. You must use Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client

  • ..and the AnyConnect client doesn't work with IPSec VPN, afaik.. Only SSL VPN.. Which is better, but non-backwards compatible.. :-/ – tplive Oct 06 '09 at 23:01

The NCP Secure Entry Client will work with an IPSec Cisco VPN. I loaded the beta version (that has windows 7 support) and imported my .pcf and it worked like a charm!!!!

It costs $144! (Hope I can get my boss to spring for it.)

You can also refer to this entry.

They mentionned the Shrew Soft VPN Client which seems to be good enough to replace the Cisco client.
