What about Tom's earlier suggestion if he only needs his e-mail to use
Outlook 2003 with RPC/HTTP and eliminate the VPN? Very easily/nicely
setup with SBS 2003.

Plan is, I am going to take;
1. A linksys 4 port BB router, to plug in between the hotels BB,
and his notebook, which I think will do the trick nicely.
2. A wireless broadband card, just in case.
3. A second notebook with the companys SOE on it, also just in
case.
4. My Wife, it will be a nice little day or two away for us.
