Hi,
I want to build a wrapper around a C++ library which exposes vpn connection functionalities.
Could anyone please let me know of any url where I can find such a lib?
Appreciate your guidance,
Angkar

I wanted something more specific ... I googled but in vain
VPN is a tunelling protocol implemented through TCP/IP. I'm not sure if there are any libraries that specific. But even if they are, they must implement some sort of TCP/IP wrapper since standard C++ does not come with it. It thus makes a VPN specific library someting strange to see, since it wouldn't make sense to encapsulate everything but that specific protocol.
However, if there are any, someone else in here will surely be able to help
What I do suggest though is to grab a good sockets library and implement your own VPN code. You'll learn sockets implementation in the process and thank yourself later. There's certainly tutorials on this

Thats a great direction Mario.
Actually I'm new to networks stuffs and so that if I find one ready-made lib it will be easy to just build a wrapper around.
But as you say it may take me a few more days but I'll surely learn a lot.
Could you please let me know of any good url on how to take the next step i.e. sockets to vpn?
What system are you talking about (Windows, Linux, ...), and what do you want to achieve, anyway?
Just for using a VPN connection, you can use standard networking. It's completely transparent to the application.
All the buzzt!

I want to implement a Connect and a Disconnect Function in VPN and the client m.c is Win Xp.
