Hello Maxime,

I have never gotten the cisco client to work as advertised.  First
off it does not run on xp or win 2k (unless you use 3.0 and to use
3.0 you need a vpn concencentrato) ((list please correct me if I am
wrong)).  If you use a vpn concentrator you should be fine however if
you are doing what I was trying to do (vpn into my network at home
using ipsec from a win xp machine) that will not work.  First off all
you have to use the M$ dial up network adapter for a vpn client and
for some reason this and cisco can't work together (funny I thought
ip-sec was an rfc standard).

"Supposedly" Cisco is going to release a new ios in Feb. (oh wait it
is march) that allows you to use the m$ dial up adapter to use
IP-Sec.  I am sorry but I do not know the answer to your second
question but I would bet that most proxy based firewalls could use
some kind of generic proxy if this is a well known protocol.

HTH,

Leon

Subject: VPN and Cisco +IIOP question

Dear listmembers,

2 questions on this great list :  (And I already made search on
google..
Hopefully on the right way.)

first one, Do you have any experience with VPN client (Software)
compatible
with the Cisco IPsec VPN?
I already found the Cisco client itself, but we would like to have a
panel
of product, in order to make a better choice.
I found Also the PGP VPN client, but not 100% sure he is compatible. 
Is the
Windows 2000 IPsec compatible ?
Any experience, link, feed-back, products info is really appreciated.

Second question is concerning the IIOP protocol.
Does some of you know a firewall/proxy, capable of handling this
protocol ?
I know Firewall just know it, but does not proxy nor analyse it (like
he
does for HTTP, SMTP, FTP).
I read about Gauntlet Firewall, but was no more able to find a paper
or
precise Doc about it.  Any other idea? Proposal, Links...?

Thanks a lot for all positive feed-back.


Have a great week-end all.


Regards,




Max.
