However, you can grab the upstream 1.0.2 release, build it locally, and put it on hold, and you'll get roughly the same package. (Minus some lintian fixes.) As for the actual discussion, I'm currently experimenting with IPSec over wireless, with the intention to put L2TP on top of _that_, since L2TP/IPSec support is built in to Win2K/WinXP clients, and available as a download for Win95/Win98/WinME/WinNT4 clients. In the scenario I'm looking at, I will control both ends of the link, so I can use X.509 certificates for the IPSec link, but I haven't gotten that working here yet. >_< -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 8th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Anu.edu.au "No survivors?
