Configure to connect to Linksys befvp41

[Steven]

I have a client with a Linksys befvp41 VPN router. I need
to configure Win98, Win2k, and XP computers to connect to
this same router. All the computers have cable modems and
direct access to the Internet. The router is configured
with IPSec, MD5, & pre-shared key. Can anyone send
suggestions on configuring the
computers or a cheap third party client.

Thanks
Steven

There are (were) documents for doing this on Linksys' web site. Or
Google "Linksys VPN" for plenty of options.

I don't know of how to do that for W98 without a client , but on W2K/XP Pro
you can configure Local Security Policy/ipsec policy as in the link below.
Keep in mind that if the public ip addresses change on either end, the links
will fail. --- Steve
