Linux VPN server and client

Hello,

I have written a Java application which needs to access an external
mysql-database. To secure the connection I would like to use a VPN.
Perhaps someone has experience with strongSwan as server? Smartcard-
support is also needed, because my java-app uses a javacard to encrypt
data, so I also want to use it for the VPN-auth.

Perhaps someone also knows a good small client, which I can call from
my Java-App, so the user do not have to open the VPN client by
himself.

Regards,

Susanne
