Virtual Private Networking with 10.2

[Woolwich]

I am correct in thinking there's a VPN client in Jagwire?

Anyone using it? Is it any good? What's required at the 'other' end to connect? The office have a NT server of some sort which I think allows VPN connections. Or can I connect to another Mac with 10.2 or would 10.2 Server be required?

Tell me everything!

Type 'vpn' into the Mac Help. I have not used it yet, but the PPtP VON client is there...associated with Internet Connect.app

tried it logging into my Windows2000 network at work from home.

Worked fine.

I tried it from home and found that it does not yet support a Shared Key password. This will effect you if you use any VPN solution with same.

We have a CheckPoint Firewall here at work.

Will this VPN client work with our firewall?

I'm not really sure how VPNs are setup... Right now, I have to use a PC which has Secure Remote software on it that lets me log into the firewall using my login and password followed by a 6 digit number that changes every 60 seconds on a keytag.

This secure remote software is windows only, so I wanted to find another secure way to access our network from outside using my Mac [I have a static IP address].
