  If you have fewer than 50 people to connect, the L2TP doesn't gain you
much. Just give out static IPs for the inside of the tunnel.
  As Thor later days, the whole certificate stuff is a mess either way.

  See http://www.natecarlson.com/linux/ipsec-x509.php#clientwin
  There are a number of ways to get the right windows registry keys in
