Open a top-secret port? Put VNC on that port...?

I think the 506 can be set up to run VPN. Download the cisco VPN client on the remote PC and VPN into the network.

Use the VPN Client. You can configure VPN client access via a wizard from the PIX Device Manager (PDM).

You'd have to wire through several ports if you need to access multiple hosts on the inside network. Anyway, a "top-secret" port just reads as security through obscurity to me.
