The Cisco VPN client requires a Cisco VPN Concentrator (i.e. 3005, 3015, 3030, etc.) 
at the location you are connecting to (your home).  The cost for the Concentrator is 
$3000 plus depending on model.  The client then allows you to setup a tunnel with 
encryption to the Concentrator.

This works great connecting a number of home PCs to the office.  However, it's a bit 
expensive to connect to your home PC.  I would forget the Cisco client and look into 
some of the other options that have been suggested.

I have a windows 2000 server. My connection is a SDSL. What do I need to set
up a VPN? I am so new that I haven't a clue:) I want to set one up to my
home office. So I can dial into it remotly. Can anyone help me put? I have
Cisco VPN 3000 client. I just don't even understand what hardware I need or
what to do first to get a VPN up.
