On December 31, 2009, the old UBC Vancouver Campus Virtual Private Network (VPN) service will be replaced by myVPN, which has been available since early September.
If you’ve been using the old VPN to remotely access UBC online resources, and you would like to maintain that access, you will need to start using the new myVPN service before the end of December.
For information on how to use the new myVPN — including how to subscribe to it, where to get help setting it up, etc. – please see http://www.it.ubc.ca/security/VPN/setupdocs.html
