RE: VPN Connections
Hello Verde, Am I correct in assuming that in order to setup a vpn connection on wheezy i need to install vpnc (or open-connect) ? That completely depends what VPN server you want to connect to. I for one use OpenVPN on both the server and the client side. So first you have to know what the server side is using in order to know what protocol the client side has to use. Then you need to determine which software supports that protocol. Bonno Bloksma -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bonno Bloksma Bonno Thanks for the reply. The connection is a Cisco IPSec connection to a vpn at work. I have a similar connection on a company-issued Mac (don't hate - I didn't ask for it). I want to set up the connection on my Debian box for additional testing. The server side (afaik) is a Windows server with a stack of Cisco 55xx gear. Not sure what other info you might need to assist, so feel free to ask. -- Regards Jack Boston Tea Party, Coercive Acts, Powder Alarm, Revolution Lessons not learned are bound to be repeated. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

That is what I use to connect to a Cisco pix at our colo, the only thing is that i disconnects every hour or so when the firewall rekeys. -- Mike McGinn KD2CNU Ex Uno Plurima No electrons were harmed in sending this message, some were inconvenienced. ** Registered Linux User 377849 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
