IPsec on Mac OS X Panther?

Posted by Cliff on Thursday February 12, 2004 @11:42PM from the getting-it-to-work dept.

ItsMr.Data wants to take a bite out of this issue: "I just got a new PowerBook with Airport. I wish to use it in the wireless network at the university I attend. The problem is that the university uses BlueSocket to secure the WIFI connections. The BlueSocket gateway is configured for IPsec tunnels. The client tool that BlueSocket provides does not work properly under Panther. I was told by the network department that it would be up to me to find a solution until BlueSocket comes out with an updated client. Being a poor college student, I would like to find a cheap or free solution. I have never worked with VPNs or IPsec. Do any Slashdot readers have any good ideas?"

Tell them they should've used Cisco access points combined with LEAP and WTLS in Panther. Make sure you call them fucking idiots for going with a proprietary solution and a gay IPSEC VPN tunnel.
