I recommend using an IPIP or GRE tunnel instead of ssh+pppd, it's inherently
stable and is immediately online when you bring the interfaces up v.s.
negotiation. There is also a significant latency improvement and it won't desync
like ssh will on dropped packets.
visit http://stuph.org/ and read my HOWTO there....yes, it's -very- sparse, but
you should be able to get it working.
note, you should use a suitable security mechanism to initiate the link, or you
might find your tunnel ending up in someone else's playground :)
another note. pay attention to the 'ttl 64' in the scripts, without it, you
cannot traceroute very well over the tunnel =]
comments and constructive criticism accepted.
