I've had better luck NOT connecting VPN directly to IPCop (for roadwarriors). In this case I set up the VPN server on the Windows platform, and just forwarded the pertinent ports to that box (don't remember off the top of my head, but a google search will find the necessary ports). This works great, and I've had no complaints yet. OTH - I would prefer to setup a pure FOSS solution - but the customer in question only runs Linux for the IPCop box, and it's just not worth the time to figure out how to get it sorted out. Now, a router to router connection is a different story, and I haven't had to do that yet, but know other's on the list are doing this between IPCOP and other IPCop boxes as well as SonicWall firewalls. Not that I would ever buy SonicWall - I had one of their tier 1 techs try to tell me that TCP/IP worked differently in Canda, amoung other bad experiences. (though those might be isolated cases...)
