Hello everybody!

I would like some comments on the following issues:

1) Is it safe enough to build a Virtual Private Network over the
Internet, considering the main aspect of data confidentiality, with the   
    

solutions available today? If so, wich solutions are recomended?

2) If I have to provide access to my lan, to someone that might gain
access to the internet from any ISP over the world, would PPTP give me
the possibility to estabilish a connection with confidentiality between   
    

the remote PC and my local network?

Thanks in advance,

Carlos Zottmann
