Title: RE: [FW1] SecureRemote and DSL
I got some good news and some bad news for ya.
The good news is I have an answer for you. The bad news is you're not going to like.
SWB DSL uses a proprietary shim to do their DHCP and other accoutning stuff. I can't remember the name of it offhand but you need to install the software to get their DSL to work.
This shim, unfortunately, only supports PPTP and I believe L2TP. It does not support IPSEC or any of the other CheckPoint VPN protocols. The shims website even states that it doesn't work with CheckPoint.

Subject: [FW1] SecureRemote and DSL
I have users at home with SWB DSL circuits that want to VPN back to our
facility.
I installed SecureRemote SP3 on a laptop and dialed in and got the userc.c
file
configured,etc and it worked fine. I tried installing SecureRemote at a
users home
and even though it installed without errors, the DSL circuit was unable to
obtain an
IP Address. SWB will not give support for VPN. Are others using SecureRemote
for DSL or are their other options? Is Checkpoint good about support on DSL?
I
have only been using Checkpoint for a month and this is a VPN first, so I'm
curious
what others are doing for remote users needing to access Checkpoint VPN.
Thanks,
