Pros: nice GUI Cons: strange logging > Just out of curiosity, can OpenBSD do what Symantec does?

I've talked to someone operating such a beast, and at least he was not content with the level of support he was getting from Symantec (ie, close to none). On the pro side, he was comfortable to add and remove VPN connections w/o having to restart all other connections as well, and some hundred of them across his box. But his encryption wasn't all that impressive (what exactly do you have in mind?). As for the export laws, even discounting these, I'd be rather wary and _not_ jump on a US or IL based closed source "solution" for security matters even if I had no other problems with such stuff. Think Echelon, for instance. And *if* you really want something with a "big" badge (sort of), please talk to GeNUA first (no, I don't get any revenues from this). But you should rather proceed in a similar way as Daniel suggested, except that you omit the badge to avoid any trademark problems. Good luck! Best, --Toni++
