Thanks for assurance.  I paln on creating a 2nd tunnel with vtun to a
remote location.  I will then use a nic on each firewall to act
as a remote bridge.  While testing, I'll still use the routing method but
I'll have aRJ45 port on my firewall at home that will be an extension 
of 192.168.2.0 that is in the office.  Any thing I plug in there will receive
a DHCP address from the remote location.  That is the goal.
