Does this affect / mess up other VPN software on Mac OS X? I use an
OpenVPN client as well as the native VPN connections as well, and have
opted to run the Windows cleint via VM. But I'd much rather use the
former, but don't want to take the chance of losing my other VPN
functionality. Any thought appreciated.
Hi Jaren,
I don't have much experience with Shrew on OS X, but I have found that
it can conflict with some other VPN software. Shrew on OSX install
itself so that one of the ike processes loads at startup, and that
process binds to ports 500 and 4500. This prevents other VPN software
(for example IP Securitas) from initiating a VPN connection.
If you kill the ike process (I can't remember if it's ikec or iked),
then other VPN clients should be able to work. Afaik the client
software can co-exist without issue, just you can only run one at a time.
