VPN connections using the SBServer as an endpoint normally are site to site,
not client/server.

L2TP will use IPSEC, regardless whether it's explicitly mentioned or not.

Not sure what update you're referring to, no update I know of exists for
Win2K(although maybe something exists I don't know of) but updates exist for
XP and Win2K3 when they are the VPN endpoints.
