    Hallo Henk The problem is that normally nobody does open the port 500 on the firewall with out a reason. You can be sure that your traffic will be blocked on the firewall. You have to wait until version 3.0 comes out. With 3.0 it is possible to make a VPN tunnel over ssl. The ssl port is normally open on the firewalls (ssl is https traffic). -Guido-
