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

Hello! I can believe it. And before you ask, I had nothing to do with it. I only arrange for other stuff. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."

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
