You may have to use the software that is provided by the VPN solution on the server, so your question needs clarification: 1) Is the VPN software only running on the server? In that case, you can use VPN software from any vendor that supports the sw/server you are using, but normally you would run a matching vendor (i.e. MS VPN to MS Server). 2) Is the VPN solution in the form of a hardware or firewall device, perhaps from Cisco, Nortel, TIS etc.? In that case, you normally would run a matching vendors software component, such as Cisco's VPN package for Linux to a Cisco VPN Concentrator. I don't have a lot of experience in interoperability in this area: I take it on faith that there is little to none. IOW - if you have a Cisco hw product, you are required to use a Cisco VPN sw package. For those with more VPN experience than I, I would love to hear some comments on interoperability. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of azeem ahmad Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2005 12:08 PM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: vpn hi list i have to connect to a server through vpn. which software should i use and which one is better. or is there any software ported with Fedora Core/ Red Hat 9 installation CDs.
