DO NOT INSTALL 10.4.6 - donkey_boy

Maybe I'm "lucky" but it works fine for me.

DO NOT INSTALL 10.4.6 - chrismullins

I've had no issues installing and using 4.9 on a Macbook Pro running 10.4.6. Works like a charm. However, I installed 4.9 **after** updating to 10.4.6.

DO NOT INSTALL 10.4.6 - rudivice

I have the same experience that 10.4.6 breaks the Cisco VPNClient.

The solution is to first remove the previous installation of your old VPNClient and to reinstall the client again, as updating or reinstalling over an existing client did not work for me. Even older versions work (I used 4.7.00).

These are the files I removed bevor I could reinstall the client:
sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions/CiscoVPN.kext/
sudo rm -r /System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN/
sudo rm -r /private/etc/CiscoSystemsVPNClient/
sudo rm -r /private/etc/opt/cisco-vpnclient/
sudo rm -r /Applications/VPNClient.app/ /private/etc/CiscoSystemsVPNClient
sudo rm -r /private/opt/cisco-vpnclient/
sudo rm -r /Library/Receipts/vpnclient-*
sudo rm -r /Library/Frameworks/cisco-vpnclient.framework/

Hope this helps.

This is no longer valid - skucera

I am using this version of the VPN client with 10.4.6, and it is by far the most stable version of the client I have yet used.

DO NOT INSTALL 10.4.6 - earidogan_dotmac

It also doesn't also work on 10.4.7. I think this has to do with the Intel-Macs. My PPC Macs don't have problems with Cisco VPN 4.9
