        Hello Aman,

	You can use one of the following:
	1 - Freeswan (IPSEC)

	You can download IPsec at 
http://www.freeswan.org/. There's RPMs for

RedHat 8.0, and you'll not need to rebuild your kernel.

        2 - CIPE         

	CIPE comes with Redhat linux. It's very easy to configure.

	(Howto on CIPE with Masquerade).

	(RedHat Security Guide)

	3 - PPTP

	Point to point tunneled protocol. You can Install a PPTP server on your

linux, and from home you can create a new DialUp connection using VPN Adapter (with microsoft windows), or just download a PPTP client for linux.

        4 - SSH

	Yes, you can use your SSH connection to create a VPN solution.
