Vista - Cisco VPN Client - Connection Error Reason 412

Hi All,

***Cisco VPN Client - Connection Error Reason 412***

I am trying to connect office through my laptop from home. But I am
getting following error. The log is also inclued here.

After searching a lot on internet and trying solutions I am posting
question here.

1) I can connect from home if I use different laptop with XP
installed.
2) Not able to connect from laptop which has Vista Home Premium.
3) I tried IPSec over TCP.
4) I tried UseLegacyIKEPort=1 and ForceKeepAlive=1.
5) I tried other versions of VPN Client such as 4.8
6) I can ping VPN server

Hi there
I'm running Windows Vista (SP1) and Cisco VPN Client (Version 5.0.01.0600) and things have been working great until I installed some Windows Updates the other day. Then my Cisco VPN Client started giving me the following error:
"Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client. Reason 412:"

In order to fix this I've added an "exception" in "Windows Firewall" of 'C:\Program Files\Cisco Systems\VPN Client\vpngui.exe'. I also created an INBOUND Rule (UDP protocol, port 500) in "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security".

This seems to have sorted things for me.
Good luck

I am trying to load Cisco VPN client on Vista Home Edition and receive the error message:
"...\vpnclient-win-msi-5.0.01.0600-k9[1].exe is not a valid Win32 application."
Does anyone know why?
