FWIW, I use that one without the kernel patch (you only need the kernel patch for encription). I sometimes want to access some library websites with IP-based authentication (IEEE etc.), so I go through the university (ETHZ) net. They offer VPN as unencrypted pptp or as some cisco specific variant of IPsec that doesn't work with normal IPsec clients (there is a Linux cisco VPN client, but it does some very weird stuff with the network interfaces, so I can't use it on my router at home :-( Not about to offer to take pptp-linux, though - it's not essential for me, and I guess as a non-DD, it would be a bit tough to take on as a first package. cheers -- vbi -- The prablem with Manoca is thot it's difficult ta tell the difference between o cauple af the letters. -- Jacob W.
