Thanks but I was looking for more implementation ideas. For example,
OpenVPN on my shorewall firewall or could I setup a VPN server inside
of my network and then just control the access through shorewall with
rules and such.

When you're writing the rules, please not that there
are two addresses at the each end of the VPN tunnel:
one for the traffic inside the tunnel (the payload),
and another for the outside of the tunnel, connecting
the tunnel ends together.

For OpenVPN, the UDP port 1194 is the default outside
port.
