I have seen several responses to my question with the use of VPN IPSEC, well,
I have no idea how I can do that, I have never use it .

Well, maybe you might give openvpn[1] a look. Its a lot easier to
setup and works for *nix and win systems (at least for 2k and xp).
IPSEC can be a pain in the ass... and gives you a lot of nice
'gifts' when using it like doesn't work behind a nat box etc.
(yeah, you can enable ipsec passthrough but then afaik it works
only with one client etc. etc.)

HTH,
