We're, right now, using PoPToP, so that our remote folks, all of whom have Win98 laptops, can use the included PPTP client. This will get them used to the CONCEPT of VPN'ing. I've built a Freeswan patched kernel, but won't hop over to it until I'm actually "on-site" with the firewall in case it decides not to come back up afterwards. ;-) We would then transition folks who are sending confidential data to something more secure like IPSec. PPTP is "ok", but I'd much rather use IPSec. :) D -- +---------------------+-----------------------------------------+ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | "Thou art the ruins of the noblest man | | Derek J.
