in my previous job, our office is a m$ house from the rack servers to
the director's laptops. back then they were implementing cisco's vpn
client solution which uses pix as the vpn server. the idea is any road
warrior can check their corporate emails from anywhere in the world by
just dialling in to a local isp of that country.
now when i saw how expensive the cisco solution is i thought maybe
there's an open source solution.
