IPsec with dynamic remote IPs is not as difficult, especially with
racoon's generate_policy option, but you'll need to know what you are
doing: Aggressive mode + PSK is known to be less secure than other
modes, Main mode + PSK can't be done with remote dynamic IPs, and Main
mode + X509 certificates need to have some X509 certificates
knowledge...


But it CAN be done, it is probably NOT the most easy way of doing
things, but it is probably the most secure, the most interoperable and
the most "easy" to administrate when it's in production...
