But in addition, for this to work, you need to allow the remote users to 
get ssh access to your local machine, otherwise ssh can't set up tunneling.
And for me, that's not something I'll do for all you guys... :-)

After we get moved and get settled in, the two VAX 4000 boxes are going to
bet setup again.   I'll also setup a cisco router or two to go along with them.
At that point I'd be willing to do GRE/OpenVPN/SSH/etc for people.

Also, within the next two to three weeks I'll be upgrading my colocated box.
It's got great bandwidth (100MB+) and I'd be more than willing to setup OpenVPN
for HECnet.   I think for our purposes OpenVPN in bridging mode would work best.

Hmmm, I wonder how hard it would be to get DECnet support rolled into something
like OpenVPN?
