VPN is much more secure than publishing specific services. Why ? Because it
hides what services are you using. If you have service published to the
internet (RDP), the attacker, can discover your services with portscanner
and then attack specific service, meanwhile if you are using VPN, then it is
impossible to know what services ate you using trough the tunnel.
If you have problem setting up VPN, then describe your configuration and the
problems you are having.
