This gives us great flexiblity in terms of who gets access to what, across varied types and numbers of interfaces. We are now being asked to provide VPN solutions for private net to private net and roaming client to private net users. There are many commercial solutions available but all seem to have some form of limitation ie. they are hardware based (inflexible) or run on NT (yuk). I was wondering if some has come up with, or knows of a FreeBSD based answer, open source would be preferable but I certainly wouldn't exclude commercial packages. TIA Rob. BTW FreeBSDcon was great!!
