Think the other way around.  I'd like to be able to configure my OpenBSD
firewall to also act as a "VPN Gateway", so I can connect to that from XP Pro
remotely using the external IP, so I can access resources inside my network.
I used to use a Server 2003 box sitting inside the network, but have since
turned that box into a FC5 workstation.

I'd looked all over for a way to do that but can't seem to make it work.
