Need a non-static-IP link to HECNet. Anyone got one available.

by md.benson＠gmail.com

Hi, Judgement day came early and we switched back to residential internet and now have no static IP BUT I'm getting a much faster line installed next week as a result so it's all good. Does anyone have a VPN I could connect to in order to keep my HECnet connection up (for me to not use, like I've been not using it since April ;) ). Winter is coming and I'll need something to do in the evenings and weekends when it's too rainy and cold to cycle :P Thanks! -- Mark Benson

HECnet bridge on tru64

True but I don't really want to keep a log (and rotate/purge them), just see if packets are going in and out. I might add another screen for setting up VPN to my server so that non-statically IP'd users can connect via the bridge. This is how HILANT works - there is a VPN to my UK network and the bridge uses the static internal addresses to communicate. The VPN screen basically does this loop forever: Can I ping the other side's bridge machine? - Yes - ok, it's coool - No - restart VPN It's run without intervention for a year now :) sampsa <sampsa at mac.com> mobile +358 40 7208932 On 18 Oct 2013, at 00:53, Sampsa Laine <sampsa at mac.com> wrote: Ah.

Yeah, thats why for now I suggest we launch the bridge in screen on the HECberry - attach to screen, send SIGUSR1 from other screen, see the results on main screen. Screen is pretty light weight, even for a RasPi...

After all, there is no better documentation... ;) -- http://www.wickensonline.co.uk http://hecnet.eu http://declegacy.org.uk http://retrochallenge.net https://twitter.com/#!/%40urbancamo
