just installed centos 6, x86_64. i am testing centos in an effort to get my employer's vpn up and running in something other than windows. we use juniper vpn, so far i've installed oracle jre successfully (64 bit). next, i tried the vpn, which downloaded and 'installed' the client as expected, however it doesn't actually connect. after doing some searching, i found that ncsvc, the network connect client, can be tested from the command line. when i run it, i get a missing library error:
bash: ./ncsvc: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
sure enough, /lib/ld-linux.so.2 is missing. there is a /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, of course. after some more searching, i found some info that pointed to installing glibc.i686 using yum. there doesn't seem to be a package for this... i also found some notes regarding how to add a 32 bit repo by adding the following to /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo:
[base32]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=i386&repo=os
#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6
i tried this, no luck.
has anyone got the juniper vpn working in centos 6? i need help... feels like i'm close.

Re: juniper vpn
Welcome to the CentOS fora. New users are encouraged to follow the links in my signature.
Don't know juniper, and don't have a CentOS box available at the moment, but on a RHEL6.1 box I do have that library:
[code]# yum provides \*/ld-linux.so.2
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin
glibc-2.12-1.7.el6.i686 : The GNU libc libraries
Repo : base
Matched from:
Filename : /lib/ld-linux.so.2
<snip quite a few entries>
glibc-2.12-1.25.el6.i686 : The GNU libc libraries
Repo : installed
Matched from:
Filename : /lib/ld-linux.so.2[/code]
So it's provided by glibc.i686
[code]# yum list installed glibc
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin
Installed Packages
glibc.i686 2.12-1.25.el6 @rhel-x86_64-server-6
glibc.x86_64 2.12-1.25.el6 @rhel-x86_64-server-6[/code]
Both glibc's come from the x86_64 repository, as shown.
The library reference itself is a symbolic link:
[code]# ls -l /lib/ld-linux.so.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jun 6 12:47 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -> ld-2.12.so[/code]
Hope this helps.

juniper vpn
We have the Juniper SSL VPN working on RHEL6. So should be no real problem on Centos 6 I'd have thought.
The Juniper SSL VPN used to not support 64 bit Java, maybe that's been fixed. But given the until very recent problems with getting a good 64 bit flash we tend to use 32 bit firefox on 64 bit machines. Your repo looks the right sort of thing but I guess you'll need the updates repo too.
My notes for Fedora (which is pretty much how we got RHEL6 working), say:
Remove firefox.x86_64 and installed firefox.i686 (and dependencies).
For SSL VPN we also installed libXtst.i686 and xterm (I think 64 bit is fine for this).
yum install libcurl.i686 gtk2-engines.i686 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i686 PackageKit-gtk-module.i686 (and dependencies)
For 32 bit Google Chrome, we also needed pam.i686 (just for information).
Then on top this 32 bit firefox we use the standard 32 bit Java.
Might help you.
