I'm surprised at this.  I was one of the last holdouts for the VPN-5000
at Sun, and I was regularly using Solaris 10 for VPN access.

As Sun migrated to the VPN-3000, we lost support for Solaris/x86,
however, I believe that the following information may be
good for folks with VPN-3000 access.  I built it once, but
never followed up since I already had VPN-3000 on my
WinXP laptop and punchin for Solaris, and trying to
configure it was a bit hairy.

The open source client that appears to have support for Solaris at:

http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~massar/vpnc

The mailing list is at:

http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.vpnc.devel

or 

http://lists.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/pipermail/vpnc-devel/

I remember trying to compile it like 6 months ago, and it needed a 
newer version of libgcrypt (as what came with Solaris 10, so I used 
blastwave's libgcrypt).  I got it built, but I can't find any of my build 
notes.  I was never able to test it with the VPN-3000 gateways.
