While I do not know the answer to your question, I've found openvpn to
be the end-it-all solution to my vpn needs. It's easy to set up, competely
userspace, supports certificates (if you want so) and can be integrated into
the redhat networking setup with a little scripting.

If all you're going to do is connect a small number of computers (small
being relative :), I'd have a good look at it.
