I use the simple scripts at http://www.webweaving.org/vpn-tools/ One -BIG- problem with any type of tunnels over TCP (ssh is TCP) is that any TCP connections inside that tunnel get mightlily confused when tere is a packet drop/retry on the outer tunnel; as the inner tunnels come to about the same conclusion at the same time. And you get lovely little avelances and your pipes wadded up.

VPN via ssh ?
I can connect to my home machines from work using "runsocks ssh". Now it seems to me that I ought to be able to build a full blown VPN tunnel using this, right? A little Googling suggest that one approach might be to use ppp over the tunnel. Given that the 2 machines involved are both FreeBSD STABLE machines, can anyone point me to some docs as to how to do this? What I want to accomplish is full biderctional connectivity. That is I want to be able to connect to my machines at home from work, and from home to the machines at work. Thanks for any help on this. -- "They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
