I finally found the vpn client that actually manages to open a connection to the Cisco vpn appliance my employer uses with a minimum of pain (security/vpnc). The problem I'm having is making it possible for my FreeBSD desktop at work to retain access to my FreeBSD desktop at home while the vpn connection is active - in other words, I can only get one way access. This is why: With the vpn connection established, the only way the home machine can connect to the work machine (via ssh, for example) is if I route the work IP through the vpn device (tun1 in my case). Problem is that when work tries to connect, home tries to route the response through the vpn. Is it possible to set up two way connectivity through this kind of vpn?
