Thanks, but what has me concerned is that fact that one client can connect just fine. I belive they are using a watchguard firebox as their firewall. Aother strange thing is that we have had a Windows 2003 server behind this Dlink router, and VPN worked with the Windows server. This is what led me to belive that it may be something else. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
