Package: vtun
Version: 3.0.2-1
Severity: wishlist

The documentation is a bit opaque.  I can figure it out (I'm a DD) but
I think a normal person would have trouble.  (There are examples; but
as written, they assume a pretty high level of sophistication.)  What
I think would really help would be some simple HOWTO-style examples.

For instance:

  You have two machines, one (alice) IPv6-only or behind a creepy
  firewall that only allows outgoing ssh, the other (bob) a
  first-class host that can be ssh'ed to from alice.  You would like
  to use vtun to give alice unrestricted access to the Internet via
  ssh to bob and vtun.

  On alice, add the following stanzas to the following files:
  ...
  then invoke: /etc/init.d/vtun restart

  On bob, check that you can ssh to alice: ssh alice pwd
  add the following stanzas to the following files:
  ...
  then invoke: /etc/init.d/vtun restart

Cheers,

                                        --Barak.
