If you are not aware, Cisco currently doesn't release a version of their VPN client for Solaris on x86 platforms (they do have Sparc). I'm sure probably quite a few of you out there work within companies that use Cisco VPN servers, and would find a client for the Solaris platform to be useful. I'm filing a request for product enhancement with Cisco for this functionality. I was wondering if anybody might like to include themselves with my request?
My request will read as follows: Solaris/OpenSolaris has a rapidly growing userbase. Many of its users work within organizations that utilize Cisco VPN servers, and would find the ability to connect within the Solaris platform to be immensely useful. Please consider making a Solaris x86 version of the Cisco VPN client software available. Thank you for your time and consideration of this request- .... In case any of you haven't used the Cisco VPN client, it's a very smart piece of software and well thought out. They currently have version support for Mac OS X from 10.3 through 10.5, Windows 98 through Vista, Solaris on Sparc (only), and "Linux". Obviously, they've demonstrated a willingness to make broad platform availability of their software. I'm hoping to push them to include Solaris x86 in the fold. The lack of this software is one key item against my total adoption of Solaris for some remote users. Thanks for your time and thoughts- John Tracy This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
