paultag | morning | 15:13 |
thafreak | Some one wants to go to the akron meeting? | 15:14 |
thafreak | I haven't been there in months | 15:14 |
paultag | thafreak: you should consider removing it from teh calendar | 15:14 |
paultag | otherwise someone might, well, go | 15:14 |
thafreak | i wasn't sure if anyone went | 15:16 |
thafreak | the few times I went i only ever saw I think 2 people...not at the same time mind you | 15:16 |
thafreak | one was the guy who started it, and put it on the calnedar, and the other, I forget his name | 15:16 |
thafreak | but I think he shows up on irc sometimes...i could be wrong though | 15:17 |
thafreak | paultag: I'd probably remove it, but I don't think I'm allowed to | 15:17 |
thafreak | I don't think I'm officially a reloco lead | 15:18 |
thafreak | only thing I think I can actually do, is approve mailling list requests | 15:18 |
paultag | oh | 15:18 |
paultag | well alright | 15:18 |
thafreak | wow, that's why I don't bother to read the forums...only two new threads this year so far :) | 15:21 |
paultag | such a shame | 15:22 |
thafreak | So, I need to brag | 15:22 |
thafreak | I pulled a total macguyver setup last night | 15:22 |
paultag | o'rly? | 15:22 |
thafreak | using ssh as my ducttape | 15:23 |
paultag | oh lordy | 15:23 |
thafreak | wife brought a machine home for me to add an account to for work | 15:23 |
thafreak | but I have them setup using samba as an NT4 domain | 15:23 |
thafreak | so I can't really do much with the machine at my house | 15:23 |
thafreak | but it was snowing and i didn't feel like driving | 15:23 |
thafreak | SO | 15:23 |
thafreak | I used ssh's tun/tap support and set up an adhoc vpn to the remote office | 15:24 |
thafreak | which I tunneld over an ssh tunnel | 15:24 |
thafreak | then, i plugged a usb ethernet adapter into the laptop, and bridged that adapter with the tap device | 15:25 |
thafreak | connected a crossover cable from the usb adapter, to the workstation I needed to work on | 15:25 |
thafreak | and eventually, I got it to get a dhcp address from the remote office | 15:25 |
thafreak | logged into their domain, could mount samba shares, the whole 9 | 15:25 |
thafreak | If I get around to it, I may even make a blog post about it... | 15:26 |
paultag | :) | 15:26 |
thafreak | i usually use openvpn to do similar things, but didn't feel like setting up anything permanent | 15:26 |
thafreak | first time I tried the tun/tap tunnelling in ssh too...worked quite well | 15:27 |
thafreak | Might even just use that from now on on my laptop instead of setting up openvpn to my house | 15:27 |
thafreak | Even cooler, I can setup VM's on my vm server, who's network adapter is bridged over the vpn to my client's network | 15:29 |
thafreak | so my vm will think it's on their network | 15:29 |
* canthus13 needs to figure out openvpn. | 16:24 |
