Hi all,

I'm using the wolverine firewall which allows one to
configure IPSEC or PPTP VPNs (or both I suppose).

What I'm wondering is which does one use for a
network-network vpn and which to allow a single
user to connect to our network? (probably a winXP
user)

It appears from the setup screens that the PPTP is
used to allow single users to connect and the IPSEC
is used for network-network connections. I'm just
wondering what seems to work best.

We have a static ip, sdsl connection if that makes
any difference.

Thanks,

--
