Which is better for the following. - FC5 server with ssh/sftp and smb to be connected to via VPN from a known WinXP machine - FC5 server with ssh/sftp and smb to be connected to via VPN from a WinXP laptop from unpredictable locations, etc. Which requires the least work Wndows client side, and which is better overall? OpenSwan or OpenVPN? I have never setup a VPN myself. So it is part need , part curiousity. Please advise. Arthur Pemberton. -- To be updated...
