I'm trying to come up with a way of accessing my work network from home, and 
have been reading the following HOWTO on how to configure a firewall/VPN.

http://www.redhat.com/mirrors/LDP/HOWTO/VPN-Masquerade-HOWTO.html

Has anyone local gotten this working? One question I have is if I'll need two 
machines at home, one for the VPN/Firewall, and another to actually use. I've 
never set up a Linux firewall before so I expect it will take quite a bit of 
time to set up.

Another problem is I don't have a fixed IP address at work. I could use 
dyndns or another service to register a domain name with the work servers, 
but was hoping to use a subdomain name like office.webperformanceinc.com. 
Does anyone know the procedure for registering a sub-domain?
