fixing problems with Cisco VPN client

Paul Westbrook | 26 September, 2005 21:26

Sometimes when I switch networks, the Cisco VPN client doesn't initialize properly.  The only way that I had gotten this to work, was to disable and renable my network ports.

These commands were sent around a while ago, so I wanted to post them here. 

sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN/CiscoVPN restart

This has fixed all of the problems that I have had since.

Workaround for problem installing Firefox extension

Paul Westbrook | 26 September, 2005 20:14

I have been having a problem installing some Firefox extensions.  When I attempt to install a new extension, I get the following message:

Firefox could not download the file at <url, including extension.xpi> because: Download error

I finally found this page that has a solution.  All that you need to do is download the plugin to the disk.  Then you can drag the file into a browser window.  Then Firefox will offer to install it from the disk.
