What kind of VPN, there are all kinds of User mode solutions, some for
kernel modules. Are you talking about IPSec?

Not for a good solution IMHO, run don't walk to FreeS/WAN first, and save 
yourself a lot of grief

CIPE = Crypto IP Encapsulation.
See
http://sites.inka.de/~W1011/devel/cipe.html

Some version of cipe is in the kerneli patches:
ftp://ftp.YOURCOUNTRY.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/astor/

I'd recommend using FreeS/WAN, though as it's a standardized solution,
even offering interoperability with other OSes.

FreeS/WAN: A Linux IPsec implementation:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~freeswan/

Or look at CIPE (kerneli patches).
