Isn't freeswan and poptop server side VPN?  What I need (and I think Dave
needs) is client side VPN?  We have VPN at work running on an NT server, I
need to be able to VPN from my linux client at home into work. I have found
one web site that address this but wasn't able to get it to work...

It appears that there is only about 5 people on the planet earth that wants
to VPN from home (linux) to work (windows).
