Description: "Full-featured" VPN over an SSH tunnel
It allows 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.
