Vpnc will only connect successfully the first time per session. If you
for any reason disconnect (e.g. sleeping the laptop), all vpn
connections will fail *until* you reboot the computer, in which case the
vpn connect *will succeed*. This is reproducible.
Also note, you can connect and disconnect to "regular" (WPA2, TTLS, WEP)
at will, both before and after the one and only vpn connection /
session. This leads me to believe the issue is with vpnc and not
wireless in general.

I attempted the fix described in this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vpnc/+bug/239570
As the symptom "The VPN login failed because the VPN program could not connect
to the VPN server." was the same, but this did not help.
I am happy to help debug in any way.
Thanks!
