There are various VPN solutions available depending on your needs for 
the network so no one answer will cover everything.

Currently I am using OpenVPN with great success and resonable security 
as well.   Homepage: http://www.openvpn.org   

One of the nice things about this solution is you can customize the 
OpenVPN GUI (http://openvpn.se/).   Even my most computer cluess 
employee's can use this.

There are various IPSEC solutions but you run into a client issue in a 
lot of cases for the Windows side.
