Has anyone managed to find a VPN client out there for WM2003 (or, I should
say, one that supports WM2003)? I have taken a look at Movian, but Certicom
has made it an absolute pain to demo/buy their product... plus I'm just not
feeling 45 bucks for a client...it seems a bit OUTRAGEOUS. I need something
that's compatible with a Cisco VPN 3000 Concentrator and supports Group
Access/Authentication (I will be using IPsec).

P.S. I love my 2210, but the one thing I've learned is if you want the
functionality you dreamed of before you got your shiny new handheld, you're
going to have to spend 300 bucks in extra hardware and another 600 in extra
software. Microsoft really doesn't do you too many favors...

Brad,

Unfortunately, you're stuck... Trust me, I've been
researching vpn clients that are compatible with cisco
3000's for several months now, and you aren't going to
find anything that's even remotely stable, let alone
truely secure, for free...

Now, if your PPC is using PPC/2003, you're doublely
screwed because Certicom won't be releasing the new
version of the Movian client to beta, until sometime in
mid-September...

So, in my humble opinion, shell out the $45 bucks... You
won't be disappointed.

brad,

we all feel your pain. centricom is a nightmare at first. you should have
asked for an eval when they wanted $150 at a minimum order of 25 units.
you'd feel a good deal better about your $45 i'd guess. as brian eloquently
points out, basically 'you're screwed'--the movian client is the only game
in town. you're consolation prizes are that by today's standards they write
reasonable code and the centricom people get monumentally more friendly to
work with when they have your $$$.

Really? I'm not seeing anything. Thanks for all your replies, though... I
guess I'm just going to have to suck it up and shell it out. Isn't that
always the way...
