Okay,

	I have a program I developed to implement an VPN for a customer.  It 
uses the tunnel drivers, and all you do is call it with the IP:port on the 
host machine you wish to connect to.  Each person's machine(s) would need to 
be setup with a specific range of IP addresses on their end (I setup 2 zones 
192.168.1.* and 192.168.4.* which then routed to each other).  This solution 
as I already mentioned, will route entire LANs if you need them to:  All you 
need do is setup tun0, add a route to the other network via the tunnel, and 
fire up the program.

	voila,
	brian
