Description: "Full-featured" VPN over an SSH tunnel, allowing full remote
access somewhere where all you have is an SSH connection. It works well if
you generally find yourself in the following situation:
.
- Your client machine (or router) is Linux, FreeBSD, or MacOS.
- You have access to a remote network via ssh.
- You don't necessarily have admin access on the remote network.
- You do not wish to, or can't, use other VPN software
- You don't want to create an ssh port forward for every
single host/port on the remote network.
- You hate openssh's port forwarding because it's randomly
slow and/or stupid.
- You can't use openssh's PermitTunnel feature because
it's disabled by default on openssh servers; plus it does
TCP-over-TCP, which has suboptimal performance
.
It also has hooks for more complicated setups (VPN-in-a-SSH-VPN, etc) to allow
you to set it up as you like.
