Tom,

I believe I have configured a very similar environment in my test lab, however 
I have used OpenVPN to do it. Basically, I have two pbx's linked via a VPN 
which passes my SIP traffic as well as anything else. Any client on the LAN 
side of either pbx can communicate with clients on the other LAN without using 
any VPN client s/w. My setup also supports "remote" clients (not located on 
either LAN) to connect to the OpenVPN server and have access to clients/servers 
located on both of the pbx LAN's. As long as the edge router in both locations 
supports port forwarding, the pbx's can exist behind the ISP's router.

I'm happy to share details of this setup if you are interested. Replicating 
this setup using IPsec is on my to-do list (which is quite long).

-tm

Am I getting confused? I don't think I've explained myself fully. The IPSec VPN 
is between two AstLinux boxes. Head office has one Astlinux box, remote office 
has another. The description I gave before was that of the remote office. I 
want the clients at the remote office to connect over the Astlinux-to-Astlinux 
VPN to head office:

Corporate LAN           }
  |                             }
Astlinux                        } head office
  |                             }
DSL router                      }
  |
Internet
  |
DSL router - clients    }
  |                             } remote office
Astlinux                        }

So the clients at the remote office end will have no VPN client app. They will 
route via local AstLinux to HQ Astlinux.

So is this possible?

Thanks, and apologies for lack of clarity

Tom

Tom,

It should, use this as a guide...  give it a test.
