Hi Florin, I appreciate the info. Some feedback:
1. There would probably be 30 VPN clients, approx. It would start off very low, probably 5, and i can envisage it increasing, but most would not be simultaneous, maybe 10. To start, I'd only have a PC available to me as a platform, but once the concept is proved, I can look for funding for a more powerful device, etc.
2. I fully appreciate that you need feedback to get things to work well, and better still, someone who will pay. I am not trying to force MNF to work for something that it isn't designed for, so i can have a cheap solution, (by downloading and not paying for it). My goal is to use Mandrake products as much as i can. If it could do the job, with some feedback and testing, I'd be happy to become a beta tester, and help improve the product, for myself and Mandrake and ultimately everyone. I am a Mandrake fan, i have bought the prosuite+ subscription twice, am a club Silver member, and even bought shares, so i am eager to use their products and see them succeed. Is becoming a beta tester simply a matter of installing the beta version of MNF2, and posting comments/questions via this list, or is there a formal process?
one should install MNF2, try to use it ... and send constructive feedback
on the ML, if possible, so others can access ro the info.
3. If you think MNF2 can be made do the above, then I'd like to give it a try, and i'll document the process, provide feedback, etc, etc.
I don't have lotus notes to try all that ... but hey, I could get one if realy necessary ...
4. My list of requirements are not a definitive list, this is how i'd see it working, but of course, if i could discuss what i'm trying to achieve, there are probably better ways than mine! Basically, i look at all the things i do on the network when in the office, and am trying to see if i can do the same things remotely and securely.
So, for beta testing, where do I sign up??!
Dj.
as I said, no need to sign up ... being active with testing and feedback ... is a good way to get a response :o)
please note that I will be away till next monday ...
have a nice day,

Ok, i've downloaded and burnt the ISO, and have identified a machine to use for starters.
Is there a pdf to go with this beta version? Just looking for a starting point. If not, can i use the pdf from the previous version, or has the interface, options, etc changed completely.
I haven't used MNF before you see.
