You probably won't find much help on this list for issues with MacOS X unless it is somehow directly related to a windows server... What are you using as your VPN on the server end?
I used to be a big defender of Mac OS X on this list... Apple appeared to be making great strides in the enterprise features starting in 10.3 all the way to 10.6... but 10.7 (and now 10.8) are all reverting back to less-useful states for the enterprise desktop. Basically, they are slowly turning the desktops into iPads, and I don't like that. Eventually I would guess that they drop the entire desktop OS and run everything on iPads... And as this is the current trend, I can't recommend Mac OS X anymore. Sadly, Microsoft might be trying to do the same thing with Windows. (See: Windows 8 RT) Let's hope not. If you still need help, I recommend the Mac Enterprise mailing list: http://www.macenterprise.org/mailing-list --Matt Ross Ephrata School District ----- Original Message ----- From: Fred Sawyer [mailto:[email protected]] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tue, 17 Jul 2012 08:36:16 -0700 Subject: Mountian Lion VPN issue > We are doing some testing with Mountain Lion and have found that a Remote > Access IPSec VPN that uses shared secret machine authentication works as it > did in OSx10.7 but Remote Access IPSec VPN that uses certificate based > machine authentication no longer functions.
