Yes mate, Netopia router products are happy with Macs and they have an Appletalk pac which allows you to hook macs up to any corporate firewall package such as checkpoint etc... or just simply use the inbuilt firewall / VPN server !!

Let me know if ya need some more help,

I was actually after a VPN client that runs on the Mac rather than a VPN device that sits in front of a Mac network. It appears that Checkpoint & Cisco do one so I'll investigate that avenue.

I double check for you, but i understand the appletalk kit, it simply provides a VPN client that will interop. with a windows or Mac based IPSEC connection irregardless of the router sitting infront of the network, although it would extra functionality with the Netopia box !!

I'll post again as soon as i no for denifate,

Cheers,

Phill
