Virtual Private Network

[TigerPRO]

I came from a PC background, and one of the functions I found very useful was virtual private networking. Whereby you could set up a connection to a computer across the internet and treat that system as if you where connected to it over a LAN. I know Panther has the ability to connect to a VPN, but does it has any similar feaatures to create one? I would like to be able to do this between to Panther systesm.

There was a similar post to this, and the daemon is vpnd via command line. I don't know how to get the thing working as I've tried everything I can.

Did you actually get it working with Panther?

Has anyone actually gotten this to work? I posted about this about a week ago. I gave up. I have yet to hear from someone that has actually gotten this to work. A VPN would be great. . .give you your friends logins. . .share iTunes Libraries.
