Ok, I can connect to a Windows Terminal Server using rdesktop but how do 
I go about logging into a VPN running from the same machine.

In Windows, I have a vpn connection I use, then I use remote desktop 
connection in WinXP to get to my actual machine at work, not the 
Terminal Server. Our Terminal Server is the box I connect to using the VPN.

I want to connect to the VPN THEN use rdesktop to reach the correct 
machine on the network. I hope I'm making this clear.

Thanks,
