We already offer VPNs, but many users, including all the Linux users and
probably all the Mac users, don't/can't use the VPN service.
Our VPNs are provided by 2 Windows boxes using PPTP VPNs. How do Mac and
Linux users connect to them?
Our users only other choice is SSH-tunneling which rules out most of them.
