For Win9x clients who don't have IPSec capabilities, one can use PPTP.
Obviously not as secure as IPSec (FreeS/WAN uses IPSec), but not too bad.
The linux implementation of PPTP is PoPToP (http://www.poptop.de/poptop/).
There is a client floating around, too, funnily enough called pptp-linux
(http://cag.lcs.mit.edu/~cananian/Projects/PPTP/)
Hope this helps.

I would go with FreeS/WAN if possible, as PPTP is a PITA (will involve
kernel recompiles, as well as patching and recompiling pppd). Once it's up
and running, it works well enough, but avoid the pain if you can help it!
;)

Cheers,
Frode
