For my Windows users i setup OpenVPN in server mode. No problem at all for
roaming users, the same crypto algorithms for Windows and for UNIX. User
just starts .bat file and gets VPN.
I think IPSec is not so good for Windows users because of limitation of crypto:
3des, sha1. It's not so hard to setup, but also i faced problem if office
network is located behind NAT. Also i didn't find thing similar to srcid on
Windows side.

As long as i use OpenBSD at home i'm trying to setup IPSec tunnel for myself.
But still don't resolv a problem :)
