Can XP be configured to support a VPN as server?

Fred the Bird

I am interested in configuring XP Pro for use with a
VPN. I know that the client can easily be configured
using the New Connections Wizard, but I want to know or
confirm whether XP Pro may work as a VPN server (in other
words, be dialed/connected into to provide access to the
home LAN for a remote user)?

Sounds like you might be interested in using Remote Desktop. Do you have a
hardware firewall? I'd suggest one if you go this route. If you don't have a
static IP address, see www.dyndns.org - some hardware firewall appliances,
such as the NetGear FVS318, support dynamic DNS settings natively so you
don't even need to run any specific software on your computer.
