Hello, Hmm .... I get the "corrupted mac" error again on current, while connecting to the net4801 with windows + putty.
Connecting with openbsd ssh client does not produce the error, I only get it with latest windows and putty client .... Is anyone else able to test: a) with a windows client + putty b) to a connect via ssh to a soekris 4801 running current + mini pci soekris vpn 1401 c) do you get the corrupted mac on input errors? thx a lot didier ----- Original Message ----- From: Breen Ouellette Date: Wednesday, May 31, 2006 23:17 Subject: vpn1411 problem related to software error?
