whats the server?   there's no single standard for how VPN's like that 
authenticate and get setup, even given that they are using l2tp over 
ipsec.   ipsec itself is an unholy mess.    I prefer SSL based VPNs like 
OpenVPN.

openswan is the generic l2tp/ipsec client (and server) in linux, million 
configuration options via complex scripts, you need to know EXACTLY what 
the server is expecting to authenticate and setup a session, and what 
you're routing over it.
