Do you have fixed ip addresses for both offices? Or at least a fix ip
address?

It is possible but you have certain criteria before it can work. If both
offices are using a router, you need access to those routers to setup
routing rules. Or you have to use the Ubuntu VPN boxes as the routers. I
hope you are not new to networking also. If you are new at all this, you
must be prepared to spend time learning (could take a week or more) or
you might be better off hiring an expert. Again, if you are using
routers and they are supplied by the ISP, then you need access to those
routers.
