This page explains how to get a Linux machine up and running on the WSU wireless network with the proprietary Cisco vpnclient. It assumes basic competancy with Linux system administration. All commands must be run as root. The package now works with a current kernel (tested with 2.6.15).

We currently recommend the PPTP client, as it appears to be more stable.

Please note that the version we have available for download is out-of-date. Please use the PPTP client instead.

Here are some of the debuggers that are available for Linux.

• Kdbg
• KDbg is a graphical user interface to gdb, the GNU debugger. It provides an intuitive interface for setting breakpoints, inspecting variables, and stepping through code.
• ddd
• GNU DDD is a graphical front-end for command-line debuggers such as GDB, DBX, WDB, Ladebug, JDB, XDB, the Perl debugger, or the Python debugger. Besides "usual'' front-end features such as viewing source texts, DDD has become famous through its interactive graphical data display, where data structures are displayed as graphs.

This is a brief synopsis of some of the development environments available for Linux. It's by no means a comprehensive list, these are just the ones that LUG members are familiar with.
