FreeBSD L2TP client

2005-06-20 Thread Andy Miller
I am looking for a way to use FreeBSD as a L2TP VPN client. Does anyone know of a way to do this. I found ng_l2tp, but I'm not quite sure how to use it. If anyone has a good how-to, or can give me some direction, I'd appreciate it. Thank you. -- Andy Miller

Re: mac osx disklabels

2005-06-20 Thread pallen
Yeah, this sounds like a way to a solution. Of course, the drive isn't mine :-/ so I'm sort of powerless on this point. The consensus seems to be though that FreeBSD doesn't support reading those mac disklabels (partitions)... I wonder, can FreeBSD read GPT organized disks (ia64) under i386?

Re: mac osx disklabels

2005-06-20 Thread pallen
Yes, and in OSX this drive has been formatted with their idea of a UFS filesystem. The trouble I encounter appears to be because 1) there is no dos partition information (no slices) 2) freebsd cannot read the mac disklabel format (no partitions) I just want to confirm that I'm not running into
