Hi all!  I have a small LAN in Hillsboro, OR, which is
connected to the Net though a (NAT) router provided
by Verizon.  The IP on the Net side is variable.

My backup server is in Los Angeles, and has its own
static IP.  It's a dedicated server, using FreeBSD,
and I had no problem with backuppc setup on it.

How can I tell backuppc to access systems on my LAN?
I'd like to back up two hosts on it, one Vista Home
(my wife's), the other Win2K Pro.  I'll probably add 
a Linux one for development soon too.

I suspect I need to set up a VPN; if so, what VPN
software do you recommend?

Or can the LAN systems "log in" to backuppc over the
Net to start the process?

Or is this beyond backuppc's area?  In that case,
what other software might do the job?

I'm a C++ programmer, but my perl skills are, ahem,
rudimentary.

Thanks!
