But other users are able to connect using Windows VPN client just by specifying the remote VPN IP & the login name & password.
Quite probably they aren't using IPSec VPNs, but Microsoft's PPTP - which is less secure by several orders of magnitude when compared to IPSec VPNs. Bruce Schneier has a FAQ on this at http://www.schneier.com/pptp-faq.html
How can I achieve the same on Linux.
There is PPTP support in Linux; I believe you need to patch the kernel and pppd (due to patent problems in MPPE). I remember after rebuilding them, it was rather painless to configure and enable (just supply the remote IP, login ID and password, as you say).
