SSL-Explorer: Community Edition was an open source SSL VPN product developed by 3SP Ltd, a company acquired by Barracuda Networks. It is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL), and is aimed primarily at smaller businesses that need remote access to internal network resources. The product is designed to be installed on a standalone server. It allows a user to connect remotely to internal corporate resources such as intranet websites, network file shares, ‘fat client’ applications, and other data via a regular web browser. It gives end users access to applications that they would use every day at work through a simple web browser, without the necessity of installing dedicated VPN client software. ==History, versions and discontinuance== The product was first released on the SourceForge.net website in August 2004 and has since had over 275,000 downloads of the main product distribution as of December 2007 (). All versions of the core Community Edition product were licensed under the GPL while the commercial Enterprise Edition product, which was built upon the Community Edition but with additional functionality, was licensed separately under a commercial license. A fork of the last GPL release has been created named Adito, which was later renamed to OpenVPN ALS(). Around March 2008, 3SP Ltd announced that they discontinued development of the Community Edition (). SSL-Explorer was known to install and function on the following operating systems: *Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, XP x64, 2003, Vista, and Windows 7 *Various Linux distributions including Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora Core, CentOS, Slackware, SUSE Linux, Debian, Gentoo(), Conary based distributions *Mac OS X v10.4 or later *Sun Microsystems Solaris 8 and 9 (on SPARC and x86) As with any product previously licensed under the GPL, the source code is still available via SourceForge.net. However, future updates to the source code or pre-built binaries will not be forthcoming from 3SP Ltd. As of November 18, 2008, 3SP Ltd. is now part of Barracuda Networks (). The technology behind SSL-Explorer is now incorporated into the Barracuda SSL VPN. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SSL-Explorer: Community Edition」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
