There is a mini-howto, called VPN. It describes this situation. I have
used it to do what you describe. Basicly, it uses ppp tunneled over
ssh. There may be better ways to do it now, though. I think there is
a company that sells linux based VPN solutions, but I cant recall their
name.
A friend and I have an intermitant VPN between our home networks. We just
have normal ISP connections with dynamicly assigned IP's, so that was sort
of a fun project. PPP over ssh isnt super elegant, but at least its portable;
he is running freeBSD, Im running linux.
Good Luck;
Paul
