Secure connection to UIC - should resolve licensing issues?

Some people need to use the new maya or other software off campus - you need internet connection but do you also need to be connected to the UIC server?

This free vpn client may help - be sure to read the warning if you are using SBC/ AT&T dsl.
This should also help people not able to connect via FTP.
Also, remember UIC will be switching to Secure FTP in mid-March, so unsecured ftps like WS-FTP will not work. See the class shared folder --> FTP software folder on the network.

The VPN Client creates a secure connection over the Internet that lets you access UIC as if you were an on-site user.
