Hi! They have in my university a Cisco VPN solution. Unfortunatelly, if you are cuban, irakian, iranian or a couple of other nationalities, you are not able to use it (sic...). I would like to study the possibility to install tinc as client. I've read that "There is no real distinction between a server and a client in tinc". Would tinc work as a client with the Cisco VPN? Of course, I've all the information needed to connect (server, key, ...) Please, if you answer include me as I'm not a member of the mailing list. Thanks!
