What I am looking for is a VPN software or appliance that operates in a similar fashion to gotomypc or other similar remote access programs. I have many clients that it would be very useful for me to establish a VPN with. The problem is that they don't maintain their own router/firewall and the company that does maintain them will not allow ports to be forward and will not support VPN unless you pay them a hefty monthly fee to do so. So I am wondering if anyone knows of anything that can be installed on the remote network and could "call out" to my local network and in a sense establish a reverse VPN tunnel?

Well - the VPN tunnel doesn't generally require ports to be opened, but requires IPSec passthrough. So, if IPSec passthrough is opened, then you could put a hardware VPN device like the Netgear FVS114 on the inside of their firewall and establish a connection through it. If the VPN passthrough is disabled then VPN connections would fail regardless of which direction it was initiated from. Since the port forwarding is disabled, you would need to setup the VPN router from within their network. Additionally, they would need to have a static public IP address, and you would need to be able to assign a static private IP address to the router within their network.
