Re: Network access control / logging for SOHO environment

Walden,

Careful! Most cheap routers do NOT support multiple VPN connections from

behind it to the same VPN server. PC1->router->VPN1 and
PC2->router->VPN2 is fine, but PC1&PC2->router->VPN1 won't work.



Just as a follow-up for the archives, I've now tested two concurrent PCs
both running their VPN client software behind the WRT54G router (V5
hardware) with HTTP/HTTPS blocked at the router and a proxy server on the
corporate LAN.  Worked like a charm.

No problems establishing two concurrent VPNs and trying to browse on both
concurrently (as much as I can using one hand on each PC).

I don't know if it is the more recent V5 hardware level, or the specific VPN
client software being used, but it did work.
