What vpn app plays well with Mac?

Hey I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this problem I'm having.

I have two windows machines that are linked through Hamachi (VPN application) and I use TightVnc for remote access using the hamachi IP on the VPN. It works great.

I want to also add the mac to the VPN network and perhaps do the same using a vnc app.

Hamachi doesn't really play well on Leopard, and their terminal version kind of freaks me out because I'm not to keen on uninstalling it should I ever want to.

Does anyone know of a good VPN application that can run on Windows and Mac that has a somewhat decent GUI?

I'm not even sure if it's possible to do from windows and mac and vice versa, so if anyone knows that it just can't be done I'd love to know as well so I'm not wasting my time.

If someone just has a better method for what I'm trying to accomplish here I'm all ears as well.

Joe.

well, i don't use the GUI ones, but i use a linux box as my VPN server, i just do Sudo apt-get install pptpd, and find a webpage to configure it, i don't know if it will work with apple, but in windows all you have to do is click start and go to the connections box, new connection and type the info in there and it will ask for your password and boom your connected, i do this to get around my high schools blocks to look at the websites that my network systems class set up
