paultagmorning15:13
thafreakSome one wants to go to the akron meeting?15:14
thafreakI haven't been there in months15:14
paultagthafreak: you should consider removing it from teh calendar15:14
paultagotherwise someone might, well, go15:14
thafreaki wasn't sure if anyone went15:16
thafreakthe few times I went i only ever saw I think 2 people...not at the same time mind you15:16
thafreakone was the guy who started it, and put it on the calnedar, and the other, I forget his name15:16
thafreakbut I think he shows up on irc sometimes...i could be wrong though15:17
thafreakpaultag: I'd probably remove it, but I don't think I'm allowed to15:17
thafreakI don't think I'm officially a reloco lead15:18
thafreakonly thing I think I can actually do, is approve mailling list requests15:18
paultagoh15:18
paultagwell alright15:18
thafreakwow, that's why I don't bother to read the forums...only two new threads this year so far :)15:21
paultagsuch a shame15:22
thafreakSo, I need to brag15:22
thafreakI pulled a total macguyver setup last night15:22
paultago'rly?15:22
thafreakusing ssh as my ducttape15:23
paultagoh lordy15:23
thafreakwife brought a machine home for me to add an account to for work15:23
thafreakbut I have them setup using samba as an NT4 domain15:23
thafreakso I can't really do much with the machine at my house15:23
thafreakbut it was snowing and i didn't feel like driving15:23
thafreakSO15:23
thafreakI used ssh's tun/tap support and set up an adhoc vpn to the remote office15:24
thafreakwhich I tunneld over an ssh tunnel15:24
thafreakthen, i plugged a usb ethernet adapter into the laptop, and bridged that adapter with the tap device15:25
thafreakconnected a crossover cable from the usb adapter, to the workstation I needed to work on15:25
thafreakand eventually, I got it to get a dhcp address from the remote office15:25
thafreaklogged into their domain, could mount samba shares, the whole 915:25
thafreakIf I get around to it, I may even make a blog post about it...15:26
paultag:)15:26
thafreaki usually use openvpn to do similar things, but didn't feel like setting up anything permanent15:26
thafreakfirst time I tried the tun/tap tunnelling in ssh too...worked quite well15:27
thafreakMight even just use that from now on on my laptop instead of setting up openvpn to my house15:27
thafreakEven cooler, I can setup VM's on my vm server, who's network adapter is bridged over the vpn to my client's network15:29
thafreakso my vm will think it's on their network15:29
* canthus13 needs to figure out openvpn.16:24
