need advice for installing VPN on Windows Server 2003

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hi. I'm posting this message to see if anyone can advise me on the easiest
way to set up a VPN on a server running Windows Server 2003 R2. I was given
the administrator login user and password. The VPN will be needed for use
with ACT! contact manager software to be able to sync to the ACT! database
on this server from a remote client, actually 2. Both client laptops have
ACT! version 6 installed on them. I was loaned one of the laptops to try to
get this set up.

Thanks,
Richard Eagle
