Hello List:

I've recently discovered that I can make a vpn tunnel with openssh (I 
made many port forwarding before).

I've searched many places and found this script that's very usefull:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_VPN_over_SSH_and_tun

modified it so it uses a key with no password.

the question is if there is a better way of establishing this vpn. I'm 
thinking maybe of making a tun0 interface permanent (a 
/etc/sysconfing/network-scripts/ifcfg-tun0 file)
or something else, so that it goes up automatically on reboot. or goes 
up on failure or when there is traffic...

I have a Centos 5.2 server

regards,
