How would you set this up so the tunnel was always available? Currently, I boot the laptop and log in to my account. I'm prompted for my pass phrase when I first log in via ssh-add. Then open an xterm and create the ssh tunnel. The tunnel should available soon as the network comes up before user login. I suppose I could create a single-use ssh key pair and use that key to create the tunnel in an init script and use the -N ssh option. Not sure what the single use command would be, though. Perhaps /bin/false to prevent misuse of the keypair. Or am I missing the obvious procedure? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
