Title: 860 Owners - Need Specific Info - Want To Buy
Post by: mgrab on December 03, 2004, 04:00:58 pm
Anyone who still has, or has access to, the stock ROM can help.  I would like to know a few things.

Even if you can't answer the questions, could you post a screenshot of the vpn client utility?


1, does the 860 come with a vpn client?
2, if so, does it include settings for IPSEC?
3, if so, does it support auto-key IKE?
4, if so, does it support aggressive mode IKE?
5, if so, does it support 3des?

I am trying to get these for about 15-30 remote technicians who do invoicing from the field.

Thanks,
Matt

I use the Sharp ROM on my Zaurus SL-C760, and it does not come with a VPN program as far as I can see.  It does, however, allow you to configure WEP for wireless networking.

I was able to get a reply from Brett @ conics.net.
Here is a link to what he says he found on Sharp's Japanese site:

http://conics.net/shp/pda/zaurus-sl-c700/vpn/ (http://conics.net/shp/pda/zaurus-sl-c700/vpn/)

Basically, yes it supports all the things I asked about.

I want to point out that the link above says c700, but I am under the understanding it is for the c860.  I don't know what is on the c700.

While on the topic of what is on other cxxx devices:



Does Anyone have info about the c750?

bargainpda says it has the vpn client.

http://www.bargainpda.com/default.asp?news...owComments=true (http://www.bargainpda.com/default.asp?newsID=1592&showComments=true)

Scroll down towards the bottom.  There is a screenshot showing the vpn tab in the network config utility.  The review says IPSEC is supported, but the author didn't try it out.

Does anyone have a c750 with the stock Sharp ROM?  I would like to get more info on this.
Thanks,
Matt
