Hamachi is a cool app. But this is more of a peer to peer VPN? Meaning
every host you want secure communications must be running Hamachi also?

There is also a good quick comparison PDF located @

include the drawbacks on the Iopus client.

I assume your saying that all shell servers are also VPN providers by
assuming that SSH redirection is acceptable. IMHO SSH based port
redirect or socks proxy is not really a VPN. By my definition a VPN
consists of client software that provides a network driver shim that
encrypts all traffic leaving you computer. There is a small group of
VPN to Internet to providers that just provide specialized service
that provide VPN services from and to the Internet. So that list
would be pretty short.
The list so far:

Most ISPs provide this via thier shell servers.
I know from experience that nando.net and bestweb.net had/have a
shell servers avail at no additional cost for thier ISP customers. I
think this is an essential service for all ISPs to offer, take heed!
No need for an isp? google "unix shell servers".
Most of these vendors will setup whatever proxy you need for a fee.
I think the proposed list would be too huge and basicaly redundant,
its not realy worth anyone compiling one. It would be like having a
list of 'residential light bulb installers' under 'electricians' in
the phone book. Not everyone can install a light bulb true, but all
electricians can (i hope).
Maybe we can encourage accesspoint providers to offer such service
localy and freely, by standardising this offering we can make it
more accessable:
I would suggest providing a standard FQDN for this service perhaps
$(AP_HW_ADDR).freeproxy.nycwireless.net. , and a standardised
username "proxy:proxy" for ssh logins. The colons would have to be
removed from the hardware address, to prevent the parser thinking it
a malformed ip6 addy.
This o/c protect's the user from the fellow user, but the AP admin
can still see all, but then again, some one some where, always can.

Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
There was a nycwirless presentation given two years ago on some
ways to secure connections. Mainly it describes how to
create ssh tunnels, but has other information as well.
