It is. However, the server gets to decide if it will. Doing so,
is opening yourself to a great big security hole. Most desktops aren't
properly locked down. If a desktop is allowed to use a VPN tunnel and
the general internet at the same time, then you are opening the
protected network to being hacked by somebody hopping through the
desktop. Do you really want to do this?

Win 2K/XP come with IPSec built-in and don't really need a
client. Max OSX may have it built-in as well.
