One of my customers is using such client software from cisco, but there were no problems, I just had to open UDP port 500 (isakmp), but this customer has a leased line with a router and no PPTP/PPPoE connection must be established when connecting to the internet. sorry, bye, -- ------------------------------- ---------------------------------- Michael Bretterklieber - http://www.bretterklieber.com A-Quadrat Automation GmbH - http://www.a-quadrat.at Tel: ++43-(0)3172-41679 - GSM: ++43-(0)699 12861847 ------------------------------- ---------------------------------- "...the number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected..." - Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson, June 1972
