Well you can use IPSec in any event, Linux sort of supports it (www.freeswan.org) and Windows has many cheap client (PGP for example does IPSec).
Well, I think it's not a simple task to connect FreeS/WAN and PGP Net stuff, ain't? Did you made this? I've heard it's not that simple...
I have done this.. It is not that difficult and there are docs linked from freeswan.org
With Windows 2000, it's much more easy to connect to FreeS/WAN. But massive IPSec in a LAN is a little big overhead when you only need encrypted passwords :) But this depends on the topology, i.e. if there may be access to the ethernet segment it's difficult to secure it. maybe it's easier to protect the LAN and firewall the access, if possible.
