ShawnRwould it be easier to try and use ssh for vpn, or better just to use something like openvpn?00:58
ShawnRi really just want to use it to connect to smb shares from home when i'm on the road with my laptop00:58
mhall119ssh is way easier01:38
ShawnRthat is what i though01:42
ShawnRdoes it work with udp or just tcp do ya know?01:42
ShawnRbtw. 1 handed typing is hard, but waking the baby is not worth a free 2nd hand01:43
mhall119you can forward udp over ssh, I think01:52
ShawnRk... actually, forget that, i forgot i started using nfs on this laptop... that might be easier than smb anyways01:56
mhall119sshfs is better than both01:58
mhall119if you just need to share between 2 computers01:58
ShawnRhmm01:59
ShawnRit is mainly for my ubuntu laptop when i'm away from home02:00
ShawnRsshfs sounds about right up the alley, i'll take a look02:00
ShawnRthing 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 best02:01
mhall119hmmm02:03
ShawnRso 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
ShawnRfor everything else, i just ssh into my server and use weechat in terminal, so i don't care about much else, just nfs02:07
ShawnRalthough, i wouldn't mind fwding all traffic just to keep it encrypted when at public wifi spots02:07
mhall119yeah, it's good to use an ssh tunnel to a trusted location as a SOCKS5 proxy when on open wifi02:08
mhall119I do that all the time02:08
ShawnRyeah, that is why i love gmail b/c i make sure to use the secure ports, but still even for browsing, rather be secure02:37
ShawnRmhall119: ever use the gnome ssh tunnel manager?02:41
mhall119ShawnR: nope, just the command line02:50
ShawnRfor the life of me, i can't get this ssh proxy working, I know i've done it before from my android phone07:35
