VPN client software connect to PIX VPN setup?

[JMCraig]

Hi Folks,

We provide support to a number of remote sites that give us access via a Cisco VPN arrangement. They typically figure that we'll use the Cisco VPN client software setup to connect, but it seemed to me that if we had the info to do that, we should be able to configure our PIX box to do the connection and take advantage of its VPN capability without having to do anything special on our PCs.

Is there a way to do this? If so, can someone point me to some docs or directions? (Web searches just aren't narrow enough and I've searched the forum without success also....)

Thanks for any help!

The config on the pix for vpn client access and lan-to-lan tunnels are very different. They would have to make changes on their pix to allow this.

Thanks, I feared that might be the case. I've got one PC that goes all flakey when I install the VPN client software....
