Caveat: if you do use FreeS/WAN you will have to ask your VPN
administrator to set up a network-to-network link, instead of a client
link like the Extranet Windows client uses. This is a little mor
complicated.
Another alternative is to use IPsec masquerade. See
http://www.impsec.org/linux/masquerade/ip_masq_vpn.html for info.
