Alex, although technically correct, its not practical.  How many end users
vpn in from home from say a public ip on their dsl modem leaving
themselves open to attack but now also having this connection back to the
"Secure" inside network.  Has anyone heard of any confirmed cases of this
yet?

So then they are using a wrong tool. Using a wrong security tool tends to
bite one in the <censored>.

Yes, I have seen attacks mounted via VPNs. Work like charm.
