Thank you for prompt replay, however I need to be able to use an existing
client that comes with windows 2000/xp to connect to freebsd, I can not
install any software on client side (that's a requirements).

A side to side vpn configuration doesn't require any software to be
installed on your freebsd server, I guess I would need to install something
to accept pptp/l2tp connections, but that should be it..


Thakns in advance

I'd use OpenVPN, it is cross platform and available on Windows and BSD/Linux
for free because it is open source - http://openvpn.sf.net.

Unfortunately when you want to be secure you are probably going to need to
install some software.
