Hi Matthew,


Hi Kevin,

Thanks for the feedback :)

I didn't realize that Shrew 2.2.0 had an update notification.  This is
an excellent add!


Yes. It needs to be improved but will definitely be present in the 2.2.0 final release.

Regarding Secure Domain Login, what benefit does that provide?


Secure Domain Login is a feature I'm working on at the moment. It will allow users to connect to a site from the native the Windows Vista/7 Login screen as part of the login process. The idea is that corporate users may have laptops that have been joined to a Windows Domain. In this case, a VPN connection should be established before the Windows Login occurs so that it can be processed by the Domain controller.

I've upgraded two machines and started testing the client.

Notes:
On netbook (Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit with Broadcom 802.11n) had to
reboot between install/upgrades.  Shrew would not connect for phase1
until I had rebooted, but the installer/upgrade did not suggest that I
reboot.

The connect dialog for mutual-psk sites now includes username and
password fields, but it accepts empty entries.  mutual-psk-xauth sites
still require a user/pass.

Regression:
One of my configurations broke.  I have a site configured with
mutual-psk and a pre-configured virtual adapter IP address.  After
upgrading to alpha11, phase2 was unable to complete. On the gateway
side, it reported that that the proxy-ids were incorrect.  Shrew
appears to be  providing the gateway with the IP of the physical
adapter rather than the configured IP of the virtual adapter.

Downgrading to alpha10 resolved the issue.  This occured both on the
netbook described above and on a PC running Windows 7 Professional
64-bit with a Realtek card.  I'm hoping this is relatively easy for you
to reproduce, but if you require logs or the site config, I can provide
it.

Thanks again for the feedback! I'll make sure these regressions are fixed before releasing the next alpha build.

-Matthew
