Dear Paul,<br><br>Thanks a lot for your advice. Now I am going with Openswan without KLIPS. I just few question as I am starting work on Openswan. My questions are.<br><br>1. What type of client is used to connect to the openswan server?<br>2. Do we have that client built into Windows and Linux?<br><br>I will be really thankful if you or someone else can give answer of my above questions.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Zaeem<br><br><br>> Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2010 10:02:04 -0500<br>> From: paul@xelerance.com<br>> To: zaeemabbas@hotmail.com<br>> CC: webserv@s3group.cz; users@openswan.org<br>> Subject: RE: [Openswan Users] Openswan isntallation<br>> <br>> On Tue, 12 Jan 2010, Zaeem Sherazi wrote:<br>> <br>> > Regarding your question about KLIPS (Kernal Layer IP Security) is<br>> > concerned I am not very much clear that it is required or not but I need<br>> > some NAT traversal.
