                       without presence of a NAT device

  conf-variable: NAT Traversal Mode <natt/none/force-natt/cisco-udp>

  --script <command>
      command is executed using system() to configure the interface,
      routing and so on. Device name, IP, etc. are passed using enviroment
      variables, see README. This script is executed right after ISAKMP is
      done, but before tunneling is enabled. It is called when vpnc
      terminates, too

  --debug <0/1/2/3/99>
      Show verbose debug messages
       *  0: Do not print debug information.
       *  1: Print minimal debug information.
       *  2: Show statemachine and packet/payload type information.
       *  3: Dump everything exluding authentication data.

    Default: /var/run/vpnc/pid
  conf-variable: Pidfile <filename>

  --local-addr <ip/hostname>

  --udp-port <0-65535>
      Local UDP port number to use (0 == use random port).
