RE: Recommended way to setup an encrypted tunnel (a VPN)



I said that IPSec was probably the "best" way because it's
a standard protocol, with companies such as Microsoft and
Cisco supporting it and it's supposed to be built into IPv6
if/when we ever see that.

As for how it compares, I have no idea.  FreeS/WAN is the
only implementation of IPSec I've used so I won't try to
say that it's better or worse than any other implementation.

Why? (This is a real question: I see *many* solutions but I wonder why
I would choose one above the others.)

How do you compare it to other IPsec implementations such as pipsecd?
