Thanks for the input all.

The only thing that the VR had going for it was the reporting so they are
going to use WebSense with the Pix.

Hello List.
 
I have a client that is a multi-location bank with about 150 users sharing a
384K Internet connection using Novell Border Manager as their firewall.  The
Internet connection is used for hosting their e-mail, Browsing, and a few
web based apps.  In the future they are considering VPN for remote access.  
 
They are considering either the Pix or the Velociraptor as a replacement
solution for the BM server.  
 
I am very familiar with Pix and what it can do but I have minimal experience
with the Velociraptor.  
 
Can anyone out there with experience of both give me a compare and contrast
of the two?
 
Thanks
