I have to connect two networks together and the virtual link needs to be safely encrypted (some users know SSH but some will just POP blindly and LDAP in woody is not SSLized anyway).
I wonder what is the recommended way to setup an encrypted tunnel (to make a VPN) between two Debian boxes: - I tried pipsecd + userlink. The userlink module seems severely broken, at least with kernel 2.4. A simple ifconfig stays in D 'disk wait' forever! - ssh + ppp seems interesting because I know both of them. But is there a trick when you combine them? http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/VPN-HOWTO.html does not seem to be maintained. - GRE module in the kernel? (I use 2.4 on woody) Anyone has something to say about it?
