Hi All, Recently my employer bought an inexpensive but highly effective laptop (A Dell Vostro 1500, 2gb main memory, 120gb drive, tg3 based gigabit ethernet, US$450) to perform security scans and assemssments with. Unfortunely, the laptop is simply too new -- none of your suported distributions will address the NIC without changing core kernels or using usb based nics (which are simply not stable enough for prpoduction use; I know -- I tried several brands). Given that there exist social pressures to have a fully suported linux platform in use, I'm using ubunto 7.10 on the laptop.
Unfortuantly, ubuntu 7.10 uses OpenSSL 0.9.8 which is not supported by version 3 of your closed source client. So I'm using the much slower version 2.x of your client that ships with Ubuntu in it's stead. Are there any plans to ship a version of the Version 3 client that's linked against OpenSSL 0.9.8 so it can be used with Ubuntu (and thus newer hardware)?
