Re: [Wlug] linux vpn client?

by Mike Leo

my understanding is that it is free as in beer. I believe you can even go to the cisco web site, sign up for free, and download all the clients you want. I will bring it to the meeting and ya'll can decide for yourselves. --- Andy Stewart <andystewart(a)comcast.net> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Monday 13 September 2004 6:19 pm, Mike Leo wrote: > > my understanding is that the client is free...but > i am > > not 100% positive. > > I think Tim would want to know if the client comes > with source code and/or if > it is free of cost.

I don't recall the original poster saying what he wanted the client to do, but I don't think it's a generic VPN client. Brian J. Conway bconway(at)alum.wpi.edu "LINUX is obsolete" - Andrew S.
