Paul,

I was just curious if it could negotiate a tunnel and connect to any of the 
routers mentioned? Can (Open)Solaris connect to any of the mentioned IPSEC/IKE 
devices?

Yes, and why I asked if you could connect to one of the mentioned devices, or 
OpenSwan.

Think of an application that will only allow a secure IPSEC/IKE VPN connection 
as the point of access. The largest array of support for clients is desirable. 
The fact is that tossing an inexpensive router (with IPSEC/IKE VPN support) in 
the front of a Solaris box would work as well. Unfortunately I'm not at liberty 
to talk too much about the application.:-(

I was originally curious if the punchin code was going to be available at some 
point, so that a Solaris box could be used much like a Linux box running 
OpenSwan today for a secure IPSEC/IKE VPN connection. The other piece I was 
curious about was if an OpenSwan could connect to your punchin server? That 
would also be useful.
