For Linux/Unix clients I would recommend plain IPsec. L2TP is probably not needed, it only complicates things. But Windows, Panther and PPC2003 have native L2TP/IPsec and PPTP clients. > In the IPAq the only client I can find is the internal l2tp > compatible dialup client.

'local ip' must be an IP address on your protected network, i.e. in the same subnet as those IP addresses in 'ip range'. For example, if your subnet is 10.1.0.0/16, then 'local ip = 10.1.1.1' would be fine. Jacco
