Chapter 7. Configuring and Testing the AltaVista Tunnel

Getting Busy

We’ve given you theoretical background on the AltaVista Tunnel, and now it’s time to get down to business: configuring it for your enterprise. In this chapter, we lay out step by step how to install, configure, test, and troubleshoot the AltaVista Tunnel Extranet server and Telecommuter client. Note that though this package is available for Unix, we only cover in depth the Windows NT/95/98 installation and configuration. AltaVista is kind enough to have provided a comprehensive installation and configuration guide for its Unix flavors.

We do, however, cover installation requirements and considerations for all platforms available to the AltaVista client.
