Cisco ASA - Best mobile user VPN method?

Hello;

I am tasked with setting up mobile user VPN's using a Cisco ASA 5505 as a VPN endpoint. I'm wondering which method is ideal:

L2PT (which I assume can use the WIndows native VPN client), or
IPSec (which I assume requires the Cisco proprietary VPN client).

I'm wondering which of these is ideal (since I have the option to use either at this point) from the standponit of:

* Ease to setup and administer.
* Less problematic for end users (problems w/ end users' home routers, etc.)
* Easiest for end-users to setup and use.

And for either setup, what is a good step-by-step resource for setting this up, adding uses, etc.?

Thanks!

Thant walk-through looks great, thank you.

Appearantly the Cisco ASA 5505 does NOT come w/ the VPN client on the CROM that comes with the unit... and we do not have a CCO subscription (the end-user will not want to buy one just for VPN capabilities).

Does anyone know of where to download this from the web?
