I would use L2TP (which is really IPSEC). Its not that hard to setup,
you just need to have a certificate server and issue certificates. The
value here is you have client to server and server to client validation.
You can't get that with PPTP.

I use MS PPTP connections. I've done it direct to Win2K RRAS and direct
to a Watchguard Firebox.=20
PPTP has known security holes (mostly patched) but it's still mostly
insecure.
You could use L2TP or IPSec. L2TP is pretty much as easy to setup as
PPTP but IPSec requires a lot of work to get going.

Is anyone using the vpn services provided in W2k for remotely accessing
their networks? I am considering doing this but I am concerned about
security.

I am just trying to get some opinions.
