I found you address on one of the help sites. She is trying to
install the Shew software for a VPN tunnel to remote into our
network
The downloads I found were
1) Install the LGPL Qt Framework for Mac OSX ...
http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-mac-opensource-4.7.1.dmg
2) Install the current release of the TUN/TAP driver for Mac OSX ...
http://tuntaposx.sourceforge.net/download.xhtml
You can then proceed to install the Shrew Soft VPN client ...
www.shrew.net/download/vpn/vpn-client-install.dmg
Are these the downloads for her MAC to install the VPN tunnel?
Hi Dorothea,
Yes, those are the latest instructions to install on Mac OS X, but there
are some caveats.
First, Qt has been upgraded to 4.8 and I don't think the Shrew Soft VPN
client build is completely compatible. I wasn't able to get it working.
Secondly, on one version of OS X, the Shrew Soft VPN client install
accidentally overwrote the symbolic link to the the /etc directory,
making the system unusable after a reboot. (Fortunately I was able to
repair it using the OS X install CD filesystem repair.)
My experiences recently with this build of the client have been so
variable and dangerous that I've stopped installing at this time. I'm
waiting for an updated build.
