ATT substitute available on freebsd?

2010-02-01 Thread Jian Jun Wang
hi everybody,

I am not quite technical on this, y'know, in windows, we have ATT software
to access company intranet, not sure whether we have substitute here? I
tried to figure out the ways to do that, no luck. I know on linux
distribution they have agnclient. any ideas?

thank you!

You can expect a reliable answer only if someone has figured out what 
protocol does your software use and has found some alternative.


Offhand, since 
http://info.attbusiness.net/agnclient/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.features 
mentions ipsec, I'd guess IPSec support might be your answer 
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ipsec.html).

Also, looking at the posts on the Linux client support forum, ATT is just
barely supporting the Linux client as it is (SSL VPN only, no IPSEC support
planned, only three OS versions supported).  You will probably be better off
running a small Windows XP vm inside VirtualBox and using the Windows client
from that.
