I need to install the softether client on a MAC computer due to using port 5555 for VPN the connection. The file downloaded has a tar.gz extension. The Mac installer should be a dmg. I do know tar.gz extension is for linux/unix which is the base OS of a Mac and I am not familiar with. How do you install the softether client on a Mac? I have read other forums and they say to use macports or fink. This is for a client of mine and I prefer not install additional software if I don't have to. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
