Bill, I don't have an answer to the second question since I haven't worked with clients and VPNs but I imagine it's similar. We have VPNs set up for sender/receiver channels. As I understand it the VPN has all the security so I don't think you need SSL. You'd be doing redundant protection. The VPN works at the network level so it's transparent to MQ. No changes to the MQ confif should be needed.

I know it can be done, but I am not very heavy on how VPN's work. One big question is: Would it be best to find a SSL capable VPN, or just any old VPN and make use of SSL with in WMQ5.3? Another thing is, I'm sure VPN clients are available for free, but what is the cost associated with the server side?
