[HECnet] Re: TOPS-20 on HECnet?

[Mark Abene]

Brian manages who's GRE tunnels go where?   Sounds good.   For testing,
I'll contact you off-list.

Thanks,
Mark

  Oh ok.   I'm sorry, I misunderstood.

  I can set up a temporary GRE tunnel with you this afternoon if you
like, until we can get you folded into Brian's tunnel configuration
management system.   Let me know.

Sorry if it wasn't clear... Two different threads had a little
cross-posting I think.   Here I'm just trying to establish a solid
HECnet peer.   Johnny-bridge would have been preferable since I'm
running this on my NAS (and I know 'bridge' works), but if a GRE peer
is easier to find, by all means.   While my QNAP NAS does have several
tunneling options in its stock config (it's linux arm), it appears
they did not include the ip_gre module, so I'll have to see about
hacking that in.   Assuming that goes well, who's solidly offering the
GRE tunnel?   We can exchange IP's and configs off-list.

Thanks in advance,
Mark

  I thought you and I were only discussing some X.25 experimentation.
If you want a full-on HECnet connection via GRE, Brian Hechinger can
stick your info in his database, and tunnel configurations will be
automatically generated for all of us on his next run.

Seems rather counter to the idea of HECnet if it's this difficult to
join it.

      There are definitely people running the bridge in the US, but if
      they want to peer is another story.

              I'm going to try getting a GRE tunnel going with Dave McGuire
              soonish...   In the meantime, if someone has a speedy connection
              and is
              already running 'bridge' (which would be simplest) let me know.

                              I'm not using the virtual cisco for HECnet at all,
                              that's only for the
                              X.25 project (currently at sampsa.com
                              <http://sampsa.com>, though I may run a local node
                              additionally).
                              For HECnet I'm just running a plain old fashioned
                              Johnny-bridge.   :)
                              I take it HECnet peers are lacking in the U.S.?


                      I guess I should put my Python router up permanently...
