Start by reading this:

What is a VPN?

In short, I don't think that you want to go that direction... It might help protect the users but not the company's server.

The Company could set their servers to ONLY allow connection from six very specific IP Addresses. They would have very tough passwords for that connects AND very restricted access to the sever. Or the server could be a machine that does nothing but receive the connections.... From there they have networked shortcuts to needed company programs.

Thanks for the reply, Steve.
The server is running Server Essentials 2012. It is setup as just a file server. No DHCP, nothing else. All internet traffic goes through a router. They want to RDP to their individual desktops.

Why do you think a VPN is not a good idea? I read that article you posted. I've read numerous others, also. What am I missing?
