As you can see I know almost nothing about this topic.



Find out if the VPN is based off of PPTP or L2TP (the two protocols supported by Windows built in VPN), that answer will dictate which client you choose on the linux end.

For the PPTP protocol.

Thanks guys, with the link above to the pptpclient, I was able to follow the step by step instructions and connect to the VPN and then use rdesktop to connect directly to my desktop machine at work. The only glitch I ran into was the need to use the IP address instead of the machine name like I use when using the XP remote desktop client.

Now I have no reason to run the Windhosed OS on any of my machines at
home! THANK YOU!!!
