I want to set up a VPN Tunnel so that i can externaly on any machine connected to the Net tunnel through my router and access my NAS.

I've set up DYNDNS to remove the dynamic ip address issue.

The router i have is a Linksys WRT54GS and my understanding is that it provides the facilty for VPN pass through, however i dont want to connect to a pc on the local network side of the router so wont have anythnig running a VPN client. All i want to do is connect to the NAS to be able to move files around. How do i achieve this with this router, from the reasearch ive done it seems that the Linksys firmware doesnt support this facility but some of the hobby firmwares might. Is this right or am i missing the point?
