if you insist to use SSH as VPN then on the client side use "-w" parameter and on the server side use "PermitTunnel yes" with the help of public key authentication without passphrase and a loop script for auto reconnection... you must use tun(4) device, configure the point-to-point link and add static route on both sides to reach their network.. fooler. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List http://lists.linux.org.ph/mailman/listinfo/plug Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
