| ShawnR | would it be easier to try and use ssh for vpn, or better just to use something like openvpn? | 00:58 |
|---|---|---|
| ShawnR | i really just want to use it to connect to smb shares from home when i'm on the road with my laptop | 00:58 |
| mhall119 | ssh is way easier | 01:38 |
| ShawnR | that is what i though | 01:42 |
| ShawnR | does it work with udp or just tcp do ya know? | 01:42 |
| ShawnR | btw. 1 handed typing is hard, but waking the baby is not worth a free 2nd hand | 01:43 |
| mhall119 | you can forward udp over ssh, I think | 01:52 |
| ShawnR | k... actually, forget that, i forgot i started using nfs on this laptop... that might be easier than smb anyways | 01:56 |
| mhall119 | sshfs is better than both | 01:58 |
| mhall119 | if you just need to share between 2 computers | 01:58 |
| ShawnR | hmm | 01:59 |
| ShawnR | it is mainly for my ubuntu laptop when i'm away from home | 02:00 |
| ShawnR | sshfs sounds about right up the alley, i'll take a look | 02:00 |
| ShawnR | thing is, i have mounted folders inside of pictures pointing to my nfs shares... i'd like for that to stay seemless, so that is why i figured a vpn/sshtunnel would be best | 02:01 |
| mhall119 | hmmm | 02:03 |
| ShawnR | so i wanna keep the same mountpoint and basically not disturb how things are "as is now" but be able to tunnel the nfs share via ssh while on the road.... | 02:06 |
| ShawnR | for everything else, i just ssh into my server and use weechat in terminal, so i don't care about much else, just nfs | 02:07 |
| ShawnR | although, i wouldn't mind fwding all traffic just to keep it encrypted when at public wifi spots | 02:07 |
| mhall119 | yeah, it's good to use an ssh tunnel to a trusted location as a SOCKS5 proxy when on open wifi | 02:08 |
| mhall119 | I do that all the time | 02:08 |
| ShawnR | yeah, that is why i love gmail b/c i make sure to use the secure ports, but still even for browsing, rather be secure | 02:37 |
| ShawnR | mhall119: ever use the gnome ssh tunnel manager? | 02:41 |
| mhall119 | ShawnR: nope, just the command line | 02:50 |
| ShawnR | for the life of me, i can't get this ssh proxy working, I know i've done it before from my android phone | 07:35 |
