I am personally using OpenVPN for my extremely modest needs, but a friend with more complex needs found a good tool with softether (available in ports as security/softether). I also suggested it to some friends who are happy with it and reported it is easy to setup and use. It would give you freedom of choice for proto/client. Please note that I never used it myself although I plan to give it a spin sometime. This is just a suggestion from a more practical point of view, without any consideration on which one is the superior protocol/tool. -- Guido Falsi <mad@madpilot.net>
