RE: Nortel Contivity Client for Mac OS X

My guess is that the VPN administrator is using the Contivity Server
software that has the ability to limit what versions of software are able to
be logged in.

For example - I have our VPN appliances set that there is a minimum version
allowed. This setting is for Windows clients only - and won't allow the MAC
version.

Ask your administrator if you're using a shared secret or certificates for
securing the VPN. You'll need one or the other from the administrator, just
like a Windows Contivity user would.

I'm not quite sure what you're asking here. Are you looking for a remote
control solution so you can see your work desktop over the VPN? If so,
search Google for VNC, it works across multiple platforms.
