  1. IPSec working.. by -tji · · Score: 4, Informative

    I am not sure what they changed in IPSec, but I installed the updates and my VPN connections are still working fine to a Check Point VPN-1 device.

    I looked through the man page for racoon.conf, and didn't see any functionality updates mentioned there. I was hoping they had added patches for NAT Traversal or xauth.

    The Security Updates page trails by about a day so the list of changes should be up on Tuesday.

    All of Apple Support things seems to trail by about a day. Things must be published at a set schedule.

    You took the bait, and now you look like a schmuck. This is the 20th time I've seen this troll on slashdot, and I'm not an everyday vistor/poster.
