Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I would like to find a VPN client solution for Linux that is<br>
compatible with what I currently use on Windows (in a VM hosted on<br>
Linux): Checkpoint's Endpoint Connect NGX R73.<br>
<br>
It does not look like Checkpoint offer a Linux VPN client (of any<br>
kind? the VPN Client Download page has a Linux tab but there is<br>
nothing there). Is this correct?<br>
<br>
I do not know enough to decide for myself (after googling around)<br>
whether<br>
<br>
1. the whole thing is hopeless and there is nothing compatible;<br>
2. there may be 3rd party/FOSS clients that are compatible with some<br>
Chekpoint solutions and not others and more information is needed<br>
to pick one or more to try;<br>
3. one can just grab "this thingy here" and see if it works.<br>

I don't own the server side but I can ask questions - the trick is to<br>
know what to ask.<br>
<br>
Any advice? Thanks!<br>
