Have a look at:

and http://no.longer.valid/phpwiki/index.php/How%20to%20use%20PuTTY

When you do a search (i.e. remote login to server manager), ensure that you click "show all results".  
best of luck

No.  VPN is next on my list when time allows....  But I have saved this topic for future reference, it should give you a good start. There are other, search VPN and tell me how you fare. chris
