Brian, Do you mean something such as F5 Firepass ? You need to dld only the ks file or using a full network (https/vpn) install ? I didn't understand clearly why your work around is not acceptable. What do you mean in 'This >is obviously not scalable. Since many of these VPN users are full-time >telecommuters, I need to find a scalable way to support them.' ? I hope it'll help me to help you. conf t wr ;-).
