Re: [FW-1] FW: XP SecureRemote setup?



I DO have SR working on XP.  I'm using IKE, SHA1, 3DES.  I have noticed that
sometimes I need to manually start SR... In other words, the goofy envelope
icon isn't always present (this seems to almost always be true after a
suspend/hibernate and restart of the laptop).

Since you're getting desperate, let me ask all the "obvious" questions:

1) Which version of SR are you installing on XP. The version that actually
WORKS with XP was only released in the last month or two.  It says it
supports XP in the Release notes (I can get the version number if you need
it, but I don't have it in front of me).

2) Sorry, but I have to ask: When you installed SR, you DID install it on
ALL interfaces, right?  It's not entirely clear to me that SR can really
tell what's a dial-up and what's something else.

3) This is JUST SR, right?  Not, SR with eToken, or SR with some other
authentication, smart-card, get clever, add on?

4) If you install SR with "desktop policy" support, can you logon to the
policy server (right click the goofy envelope icon, and "logon"?)

Any of that help?  Or is that all too obvious?
