After searching and reading and getting all mixed up, I decided it
would be best to just ask the experts myself  There=B4s so much
information lying around I don=B4t know anymore what=B4s right for me and
what isn=B4t...

Here=B4s the deal: I need to do some testing with vpn for future needs.
Right now, I just want to get some experience with remotely accessing
ressources at my office. Later on, a small number of users should be
able to simultaniously use vpn for remote access.

I=B4ve tried to get something done (within one LAN, just for testing
purposes) by using the Windows2000 vpn-features but I don=B4t even know
how to access files even though the vpn-connection is established.

We have ADSL with a public IP-Address and a router with no vpn
capabilities. My problem is: I don=B4t know where to start. Do I need
hardware, software or both? If a new router would be sufficient, what
would be a cheap way to get started?

I=B4m sure I=B4ll have more questions as things become clearer (hard to
believe that ever happens..), but I=B4ll let you guide me into the right
direction. If you need more information about our network etc. just
ask. I=B4d really appreciate some help!
