IBM AT&T VPN client on Linux (Ubuntu)
January 7th, 2009
A couple of months ago AT&T release a beta version of their VPN Client for linux.
Unfortunately they released the client as a RPM ( RedHat package ) and not
as an Ubuntu DEB package.
But help was nearby, on this website I found how to convert the RPM
package to an Ubuntu DEB package.

And here you can download the latest IBM AT&T VPN Client
for Linux (@ 07/01/09 )
ftp://ftp.attglobal.net/pub/client/linux/agnclient-1.0-2.0.1.3000.i386.rpm
After converting and installing I could find the app here :
Internet -> AT&T Global Network Client
And check it out AT&T VPN client on Linux

I did find the application at /Desktop/agnclient-1.0~2.0.1.3000/usr/share/applications
Yet when I double click the ICON I get and error that it could not find the /opt/agns/bin/agnsclient
but that does exist.
Details: Failed to execute child process “/opt/agns/bin/agnclient” (No such file or directory)
