In case of changes/updates to ppp, you will need to re-run chmod -v u+s /usr/sbin/pppd.

@casey THanks! that worked :)

@tony1661 and @chetgray I too ran into the issue where the client would hang at "Connecting tunnel..." The following Gentoo Forums post which mentions creating links with .sh suffixes for the generated ip-up.d and ip-down.d files worked for me. https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7564890.html?sid=a9e9e76e02e56909c29a8627387b2e88#7564890

georgyo, I can. I need to access one for a job now, so the client is necessary for me.

I no longer have a sonicwall. Does anyone want to take ownership of this package?

Version 8.5.797 is available (and 8.5.796 is no longer available). One more library needs to be packaged, as well: @@ -35,6 +36,7 @@ package() { install -Dm 644 netExtender.1 "$pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1/netExtender.1" install -Dm 755 libNetExtender.so "$pkgdir/usr/lib/libNetExtender.so" + install -Dm 755 libNetExtenderEpc.so "$pkgdir/usr/lib/libNetExtenderEpc.so" install -Dm 644 ca-bundle.crt "$pkgdir/usr/share/netExtender/ca-bundle.crt" # netExtenderGui is hard-coded to check in /usr/lib

Updated this package to be less sketchy and work more reliably.

Hi, markbhp. A few things: I'm not maintaining this any more due to the problems I detailed below. So use this if you dare: Nobody is following security updates (not like this garbage should be trusted for any proper security, anyway). If this is for an organization, you'll be better off either 1) asking your IT department for help, or 2) (if you're the IT dept.) ditching this for something more sane, such as openvpn.
