Hi there

What VPN software would you guys recommend?

I would like to have the feature where the software will block an offending IP trying to log in more than three times unsuccessfully for a pre-set time period (24 hours to 3 days), and emailing these login attempts to me.

Regards

His Ookishness.

You considered OpenVPN?
OpenVPN is a full-featured SSL VPN solution which can accomodate a wide range of configurations, including remote access, site-to-site VPNs, WiFi security, and enterprise-scale remote access solutions with load balancing, failover, and fine-grained access-controls.

OpenVPN implements OSI layer 2 or 3 secure network extension using the industry standard SSL/TLS protocol, supports flexible client authentication methods based on certificates, smart cards, and/or 2-factor authentication, and allows user or group-specific access control policies using firewall rules applied to the VPN virtual interface. OpenVPN is not a web application proxy and does not operate through a web browser.

OpenVPN runs on:
Linux, Windows 2000/XP and higher, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris. An OpenVPN PocketPC port is under development.
There's lots more on the page, happy reading!

Cisco VPN client. Very stable though I'm not sure its public domain software.
