You can create VPN between W2K and FW-1 using IPSec with pre-shared secrets.
There's no need for additional software/hardware.
Then you can use W2K box as a NAT/proxy for your internal LAN.
 
However there's several caveats:
 
1. You need static IP address for your W2K box
2. You have to turn off certificates on your W2K - here's the info
how to do that - http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q240/2/62.ASP

Hi,

I have worked with the same scenario. I used Sonicwalls at the remote users and configured a VPN between the Sonicwall and Checkpoint FW-1.
( ftp://ftp.sonicwall.com/pub/info/IKE%20-%20CheckPoint%20Interop%20with%20SonicWALL.pdf )
A 5 user Sonicwall with VPN cost about 1000 $

I am running Checkpoint Firewall-1 VPN Gateway 250 version 4.1 SP3 at the
office.  I would like to set up a VPN from home.  I can and have done so
with SecureClient from a single computer with a public IP address.

I have a network at home and would like to access the office network using
multiple computers with private (RFC1918) IP addresses.  I understand that
SecureClient can be configured to use a private IP address, but you are
limited to a single machine behind the NAT device.  I would like to have
multiple machines behind the NAT device be part of the VPN.

The obvious thing to do is to use a minimum version of Checkpoint at home.
I looked into that and found the cost to be prohibitive.  Are there any
other products out there that can remotely interface with Checkpoint's VPN?
My first choice would be a Linux based firewall.

Thanks,
David Hoobler
