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.

I'm using OpenVPN for a mesh vpn and Poptop for client/server. Poptop
requires absolutely no configuration on the client side other than
filling what's required in the "New connection" wizard. However, pptp
may not be as secure as l2tp or ipsec.
