Howto install vpn on Asus eee pc series
For a colleague of mine at the University of Tilburg (Netherlands) I connected his new gadget to the internet. He wrote the following on his webblog

I have to work a lot on Tilburg University campus, and continuously need to access the Internet, which is one main reason I bought my ASUS EEE laptop. However, to get access on campus one needs a VPN connection. On Windows machines, it is no problem to install the Cisco VPN client, but, alas, not so for Linux machines like mine. Raymond Mul, ICT manager at the Faculty of Law, and avid Linux enthusiast, has been so kind to write a short manual (in Dutch) explaining how to make the university network open up for Linux lovers as well.

If you find this howto useful, please leave a note. If the Dutch characters look scary to you, purchase me to write this howto in English. ;o)

I own an Asus Eee and an acer netbook but i often use the Asus Eee because it is so much lighter and easily fits in my small bag.
