Sounds like I may need to contract this out.

Anyone on this list have the experience and desire to set
this up for us (remotely) please email me offline

I have never setup a VPN

Is this difficult?
Is there an easy to follow document explaining the setup
process?


John:

The _first_ thing you need to do is verify with your ISP if
VPN is 
allowed for your account. Some ISPs don't enable VPN for
personal 
accounts, but instead want to charge for a 'business'
account or at 
least charge for enabling it.

Setting up VPN will be _far_ more difficult if the ISP
blocks it and 
you don't realize it. (I'd add a "<g>" but it really can be 
something that doesn't bring a smile.)
