I was talking with a network engie and he told me that he already made some tests in the past with vpnc and that it doesn't work with most of the newest equipment that our clients use. The software tells me that it works with VPN concentrator 3000 and EasyVPN compliant equipments. I don't have, yet, details about the devices that will be used in the client side but I know that we'll use RSA randomized rotative SecureID's and we'll use IPSEC. I'm not aware if this kind of auth mecanism has anything to do with the client itself. Anyway, I will give vpnc a go :) Many thanks. Regards, -- Alexandre Vieira - nullpt@gmail.comhelp
