the key management/exchange component of KAME.
IPSEC (read the RFCs) is your best bet for inter-platform vpn connections. There are a number of FreeBSD implementations, although kame is probably your best bet for connecting to FreeSWAN/Cisco/CheckPoint/whatever.
I'd be happy to give you some tips on setting it up if you have specific questions.
Cheers,

Now, with my (admittedly virtually nonexistant) knowledge of VPN, I know that Linux boxen tend to use FreeSWAN. FreeBSD, on the other hand, seems to use something called RACOON. And lord knows what OS X uses (although, since it's FreeBSD based, maybe RACOON can be compiled/adapted to use on it too?) (although I just did a Google search, and according to this O'Reilly Network article, it seesm that OS X has its own built-in PPTP implementation: http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2002/12/20/vpn.html)
Can anyone more knowledgable than I help me figure out how to get this multi-platform VPN monster going? Help! I need some backup!!
You can use MPD as PPTP server on your 4.8 Box. (cd /usr/ports/net/mpd && make && make install)
