We will shortly be setting up a number of international offices
from our base in London, (Sydney, Singapore, Europe etc).

The costs of leased lines and Concert frame relay seem excessive. 

Does anyone have any actual experience of running a global WAN over 
either IBM's multiprotocol network, or over the Internet using PPTP
or some other end-to-end encryption?  Any other ways of doing it? 

We would be running:
Netware 4.1
Lotus Notes
Visionware PC-Connect telnet to AIX
Sybase
Possibly OLAP tools

Would the extra latency cause problems with these systems?
