Something to connect from a Linux box to another Linux/Unix network?

IPSec works for us on this, both as a server with a variety of other
systems running IPSec including Linux, OS X, and appliances such as the
LinkSys BEFVP41 VPN boxes, and connecting Linux laptops to other systems
using IPSec.

We have quite a few people connecing Windows machines to Linux boxes using
the Microsoft exercise in ``Kindergarten Cryptography'', PPTP.
