I was over thinking the problem.
I found the resolution, basically, in this document:
http://www.linuxguruz.com/iptables/howto/2.4routing-5.html
specifically section 5.3 on GRE tunnels.
To restate; I was having a conceptual problem figuring out how to set up two linux routers
at two seperate locations. Each one has it's own connection to the internet, and they are
connected via a leased-dsl line, and the networks behind each router need to "see" each
other (specifically, the warehouse needs to see the servers here).
Currently, the warehouse shares our internet connection over the leased DSL line, and
at "some point in the next three months" I will be asked how to configure the two boxes.
And thanks to this document I think I can do it (I have a fairly good grasp of TCPIP and
routing, I just had a hard time imagining what I was setting up where- the hardware was
hard for me to figure out, if that makes sense.).
Thanks to all of you for your brain-cycles. :)
