Saw your other post. We are using the IPSEC client with XP. This concerns me, we are going to start adding some Win 7 machines soon.

I been using the mobile user VPN client from watchguard for years for our notebooks in the field and it has never required admin rights to use it. You only need admin rights to install the software.

Let's put aside that our Firebox has not exactly been a walk in the park, nor has their support been very helpful. Another company we do business with also has a Watchguard appliance, and some users need to VPN into their system. Their VPN client software requires local admin privileges to work. A vendor... of a Security Product... requiring local admin... Requiring the entire system to be wide open to a regular user..... Are they trying to be a vendor of a security product?
