Just out of interest, I've just set this up two days ago using the
"Cisco VPN Client" on my Thinkpad T20=20

This only works of course if you have a Cisco box "back at base" that
uses this, but they're very common in the corporate/educational  world -
originally very expensive, but there are now some quite inexpensive
ones.

I did a search for VPN and Linux and got ODD results...

I am wanting to see if I can use a VPN Connection and then Terminal into
a=20
Windows PC...

rdesktop.org handles the Terminal Services Client on Linux and runs well

(I'm on a P166 so 256 color isn't bad =3D)

Is there a linux package that will allow me to create a Virtual Private=20
Network with Linux into a Windows box?

Like this? http://sunsite.dk/vpnd/  <- I am new to the VPN thing but
will=20
catch on quick =3D)

Thanks!
