David,

OpenVPN will be easier to work with than IPSec for this purpose (especially if 
you are on a dynamic IP at your house).  The IPSec Road Warrior support works 
fine for one dynamic end point.

There are several resources for using OpenVPN (including a gui) on OS X.  I 
believe Lonnie has a Mac so he can probably make further suggestions.

Subject: [Astlinux-users] VPN config

What VPN settings should I use on my Astlinux gateway if I want to connect my 
Apple MacBook's onto my local network when outside of the house?  The built in 
VPN client in OS X gives me three choices for VPN... "L2TP over IPSec" or 
"PPTP" or "Cisco IPSec".  Looking at the Astlinux network tab I see a PPTP 
option which seems fairly easy to setup, but there are two IPSec options which 
look more complicated, I don't know which to select, nor whether either would 
work.

Any advice / suggestions?

Thanks
David
