    Hi

    I am looking for a ‘How to’ to use VaporSec to setup a VPN between my laptop and a remote network. My iBook (10.2.8) at home is behind a wireless linksys router but I move it to other networks and dialup.

    The remote Mac runs OS X 10.2.8. It runs IPFW and NAT … with a 192.168.x.x network behind it. I want to VPN to that Mac so that I can access the fileserver and other Macs behind the firewall.

    I see that VaporSec can be used as a VPN client to other VPN servers … but I can’t find info on how use it to make two Macs talk.

    thanx

    I could possibly know the IP address from whence I am coming.

    You have articles on racoon, host to host, OSX to 3rd party firewall and network to network using 2 OSX boxes as gateways.

    What I really want is host to network.

    I was about to try the ‘network to network’ setup until I read u reply about knowing your IP address. Is it also the case for the racoon setup? If so … can I not first SSH to the remote gateway, add my local IP, restart the racoon service and then connect by VPN.

    I’m gonna try this while I await a reply.

    Again .. the setup is OSX jag on a gateway box. The box does firewall and NAT for internal network. Using my OS X jag iBook I wanna VPN to it from multiple places. …. thanx

    By the way … I am attempting to set up the racoon senario but as I add those spdadd entries I am then unable to SSH out and my SSH session to another hosts dies.
