freeswan

I'm looking for anyone that has gotten freeswan up an running on the list here. How easy was it, your views of preformance ect ect. Can a windows machine with the vpn client stuff loaded take advanage of the resource. I am in need in near future of maybe setting up a vpn for a remote office in another state for one computer an need to give this person access to our account software package on my network here. thanks for any views ideals. I would love to do this with a linux server an not have to use a windows machine to do the vpn server side stuff. jack malone horizon industries
