What about using your 2000 box as a NAT router for the VPN network? I think
2000 has this capability built in, otherwise you can pick up a WinRoute type
aplication and try that. If you get really desperate, install a SOCKS proxy
server, then grab the socks unix package from www.socks.nec.com, and finally
do a runsocks nessusd on your linux machine after setting the appropriate
variables. You then need to force nessus to only use tcp connect() calls (as
well the portscanner plugins, use nmap with -sT). That might allow you to
perform about half of the nessus checks. Another option could be running
VMWare on the 2000 machine and creating a Linux/BSD Virtual Machine. I have
no idea how the network/routing works under Windows VMWare, but under Linux
you can transparently NAT the VM's. Good luck, I am interested in hearing if
any of the above methods work.
