Why must it be IPsec with L2TP. OpenVPN (pure SSL VPN) is much more simple and flexible and will likely provide /you/ with more security.

Well, we can't guess to what you're wanting. What version/distro of Linux? What VPN software on Linux?
Did you try to Google for solutions?? Lots of guides come up for "linux vpn server windows clients"..... |
