Bear, in what sense? Slow, hard? I've been using it for years and I love it. It's definitely easier to set up than IPSec. All my DNS (and some other UDP stuff) goes over OpenVPN. At times I even had a "ssh -D" SOCKS proxy on the other end, so double encryption, with no slowdown to notice. Now if SoftLayer or the warty tools they provide want a particular kind of VPN, that would be real problem. -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.
