Are they Linux boxes? Cicsco? Something else? If they are all Linux machines, I would very much recommend openvpn. 'yum install openvpn' and read the quickstart howto on <a href="http://openvpn.net" target="_blank">openvpn.net</a>. If it's cicsco you can use the 'vpnc' package. If it's a generic ipsec server you can use 'openswan'. kevin -- fedora-list mailing list <a href="mailto:fedora-list@redhat.com">fedora-list@redhat.com</a> To unsubscribe: <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list" target="_blank">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list</a> Guidelines: <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines" target="_blank">http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines</a> </blockquote></div> -- Thanks & Regards Sachin Murudkar Sr. Specialist Solutions DUX Soft Pvt.
