Instructions for setting up a VPN connection
using the VPN Connectoid and EasyDrive2
A VPN Connectoid is a program for automatically setting up a VPN connection with the minimum of intervention from the user.
The VPN Connectoid for the Sixth Form College, Farnborough also contains within it a copy of the EasyDrive2 program for accessing resources on the College network over a VPN connection.
The VPN Connectoid displays step-by-step instructions as it runs and should automatically launch EasyDrive2 once an active VPN connection has been established.
Four versions of the VPN Connectoid are available:
- for the 32 bit version of Windows XP
- for the 64 bit version of Windows XP
- for the 32 bit versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7
- for the 64 bit versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7
