As a company, we setup and maintain Linux FreeS/WAN VPN solutions.  I 
don't see a need for setting up VPN tunnels on the LTSP application 
server, unless you are wanting to secure and encrypt all traffic being 
sent to and from the LTSP workstations.  We have had a fairly thorough 
discussion on this list concerning some of the details about how to go 
about setting the workstations up for this kind of scenario.

If on the other hand, you want to allow VPN connections to your internal 
network from the outside, i.e., the Internet, then you will most likely 
want to setup FreeS/WAN on your firewall that is connected directly to 
the Internet or to a dedicated security gateway box in a DMZ or the 
internal network that all IKE, AH, and ESP traffic are redirected to by 
the firewall.
