l have greatly appreciated everyones input on my question. It has been
very informative.
Whilst most of the usage will be browser based for our Windows, Mac &
Linux users, we also use SSL, DB management and Secure FTP software as
well Does this change the selection at all?
no. juniper ssl has something called network connect taht will allow
your users full blown network access if they need it (in order to run
other applications that are not browser based)
the SA also supports to run Remote Desktop Protocol and SSH via a Java
applet that they provide.
It seems to me from what l'm hearing here that the Juniper is market
leader for a reason. It seems that Checkpoints options are lagging
behind in usability and options, even though they are improving and
catching up over time.
hardly.
Please correct me if my analysis of the responses were incorrect.
It's Checkpoint's lack of true support for Mac OS (6 - 12 months VPN
software lag after OS upgrades) and lack of Linux VPN client that is
driving this search, and while we're at it Ray l will be recommending an
RSA SecurID sidekick to the project to beef up security for our users
using Cyber cafe's (l know they will no matter how many times you warn
them) and other public networks.
Check Point uses an ActiveX control in the browser. This should tell you
allot of what browsers are supported with their Connectra software.
For Linux the latest secure client kernel module is for RedHat 7.3 and
they don't seem to care that there are a lot of linux users in the world.
