Hello everyone,

I'm pretty much stuck here.

I have a RHEL3 firewall with iptables. One Windows XP VPN client behind 
that firewall will use the 'Business Anywhere Kit' with L2TP/IPSEC to 
connect to a Windows (I suspect) VPN server on the Internet. Is such a 
thing doable? Are there any good iptables scriplets for that? Most of the 
info I was able to google used some from of ipsec on the Linux server and 
it was assumed you had Administrator priviledges on the remote VPN 
servers, which I don't. Also the remote VPN servers are most likely not 
Linux/Swan/etc...

The only server that I can admin here is the RHEL3 box. The Windows XP 
client is 'secured/tamper protected' and another company runs the VPN 
servers on the Internet..

Any ideas?

Thanks for reading,
