You don't need IPSec at all to log into terminal server. If you want the
terminal server data encrypted as it passes through the internet, you will
need IPSec (or some other VPN solution) on both ends. You can run IPSec on
the LRP boxes, windows boxes, or wherever you want, as long as you're using
IPSec implementations that interoperate, and you've got one on each end.

Obviously the Terminal Server client, and whatever VPN software you decide
you need, if any. If you use IPSec, there are many clients available for
windows, but most cost money.

Can't help you here...there are MANY different ways to set this up,
requiring different knowledge and expertise, different amounts of money
spent to purchase software, and many other factors. You'll have to read up
on possible solutions and decide what makes sense for your particular
situation.

For linux IPSec, see the FreeS/WAN site www.freeswan.org There are many
example configurations and explinations.
