Thanks for your links. I attempted some things, with the vpnc from sfe, but
it always failed to add the routing
information.

>From your links, I downloaded the vpnc scripts:
http://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/vpnc-scripts.git
and copied the vpnc-script to /etc/vpnc instead of the script from the
package and now I can connect
to my company, because this script can also add the routing information
now.

Thanks for all the help
