OK, I'm in the deep end of the pool here but, have you seen this page? Like too many articles- there's NO DATE! One other thing if I understand correctly- Juniper requires (among other things) Linux IPSEC, yes? I'd venture to guess the right kind of help on this might be found elsewhere.. |

Have you tried the one that comes standard in Puppy? Look under Menu>Network _________________ Puppy Software <-> Distros <-> Puppy Linux Tips |

Juniper uses some proprietary vpn protocols and hence it will not work.pretty much all corporations have proprietary protocols and hence the in-built vpn for puppy will not work in a corporate environment. |

as per some sites the juniper network client needs motif client libraries http://roner70.blogspot.com/2007/08/howto-juniper-ssl-vpn-in-ubuntu.html |

That post is four years old. I think if I were looking for a recent page I'd make it this one. Interestingly enough those "smelly old Motif libs" are referenced for the alternate install. |

with the preferred method im still stuck at step 1> where in the juniper client itself does not get downloaded completely.
i get an incomplete client and hence cant even proceed to the next steps. |

Assuming you have the correct Java plugin, which, you might need in order to complete the download, contact the webmaster or try a different browser, ask where the problem lies. That I'm unable to go any further- I'm sort of out. Best of luck and do post should you find some joy. PS- One other page.. tips perhaps. Maybe "modprobe tun" before your next download attempt.. |

Very useful. That Scott Deming post got me started and now I can happily tunnel to my company's network directly from Fatdog64 w/o having to start my Windows VM. Thank you again for the good find, cheers! _________________ Fatdog64, Slacko and Puppeee user. Puppy user since 2.13 |
