Hello,
I have a user who moved to a remote location, without getting to into it I need this user to be able to run simualtaneous vpn clients to my network, each of which have different settings. 1 connection will be for mail and our interal administration site the other will be for a different connection.

Any ideas, is this possible to run multiple simualtaneous vpn clients at the same time?

Thanks
 
There are some routers that will do it. If memory serves me correctly, You may even be able to get a $200 Linksys to run up to 6 vpn connections. Depends on the protocol...

In the future everything will work...
 
Thanks NX01,
The user however is having issues running both VPN clients at the same time.
Are there any vpn clients that can host multiple simultaneous threads like what I need?
 
Perhaps I didnt explain correctly, there are two seperate networks to completely seperate servers.
 
I did misunderstand...

Basically it still comes down to having a capable gateway router such as a Sonicwall (and software client or another Sonicwall remote), and broadband connections for each network for this to happen. An expensive setup, in any event.
 
well.... thats really blows as the users ISP is dialup and I dont think they can get broadband......

Any ideas?

Thanks
 
If I understand you correctly, maybe its a routing issue
whereas you need to add a route on the users computer to the internal network from each office and make the gateway the respective vpn interface.
