Re: vpn encryption



I saw on the gov. site that is was the new FIPS, that's why I want to
run it and asked. Ok, so if Openbsd can what about a remote client that
can use this encryption? All the clients I have seen only do 3-des I
believe, so if you know of one please advise. I was really looking for
it as a way to sup up the security for remote workers so a client for
winbloz would be needed.

Thanks, gernot for helping. Have a great day!

Of  course  it  is  possible.  Rijandel  is  now  the new american
encryption standard, AES, and is supported by OpenBSD IPSec
