Re: free ipsec client?

Thanks for pointing out that xp and vista support ipsec vpn connections
natively. I didn't know that, I guess.

I think I found a solution to go around what I was originally try to
accomplish by using ipsec. To fill in the missing details however, I should
say that I had a hardware firewall that offered ipsec server functions, but
had user workstations behind small home-class routers that I wanted to
connect up to the hardware firewall. I am going to bypass this entirely
now at this time. But thanks so much for your help!

Sincerely,
Joe.

Like don't they do it natively?

For like what? Can you be more specific?
