Would a VPN using SSH be a viable system for say a school district?  Amount
of traffic per day would be relatively low.  Several school districts
looking to implement "technology plans", a phrase I really hate, which
include VPNs. This is due to need to connect several schools in a secure
manner for exchanging student info, etc. Using an open source solution to
provide this service would be one more need checked off as available.
