Hi --
  I have some linux servers at work that I want to connect from home.
I have a sonicwall SOHO 3/50 firewall at office. This firewall accepts
50 input connections from outside and can be vpn 'ed to. But I have
never done this before. Any idea, how I can should configure vpn for
the firewall to connect to the serverrs? Which are the softwares that
need to be installed on the linux servers so that I can remotely
connect to them and authenticate the users?
I think windows server has remote access services that takes care of
this (am not sure as I never worked on windows server), is there
similar services like that on linux.

I have redhat linux 9.0

Thanks in advance for any of your help,

-Al
