VPN Connection from MAC to a Sonicwall TZ 170
I have a client who decided he wanted to learn a MAC. He has an exchange server with a Sonicwall TZ170 Standard OS running. He wants to use Entorage to connect to his exchange server and get his mail. I tried configuring the built in VPN software on the MAC to connect to the sonicwall (am using a shared key on the sonicwall). It will NOT connect using a shared key. I did some research and what I have been able to gather, the built in VPN on the MAC will NOT connect to the Sonicwall. Sonicwall doesn't have a VPN client for the MAC. Anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to connect the MAC to my Sonicwall? I downloaded and tried a client VPN Tracker but have found it virtually impossible to correctly configure. I have tried many different ways, however still can't connect. It would be nice if there was something as simple as the Sonicwall client for the PC that I could use on the MAC.

Worked like a charm. I didn't get a chance to try the recommended VPN clients because I had to give the client back his MAC. I will try once I get my hands on it! THANKS!!!!
Is there instructions anywhere on configuring the IPSecuritas for the Sonicwall?
