  It works well, but it can be tricky to set up.  Basically, it uses a
virtual network card.  In reality, it's not ALL that different from
tunneling a PPP connection over an existing port.

  Hehe, no, I went looking at it doesn't look like there is any Win32
solution that's compatible with OpenSSH VPN tunneling.  It was more a
curiosity sake on my side.  Most of the time we're out of the office (away
from home), we're on laptops running Win32.  I know, I know, but it can't be
helped..
