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.
I can't answer about OpenSwan but I've just set up an OpenVPN server myself for the first time, which turned out to be very easy, and the client setup for both Windows and Linux clients is easy too.
