Well, we do not have static IP addresses, and the routers does not
support VPN. Also I do not like the idea of VPN because I feel that
would forward more packets than needed. I may be wrong. :-)
Although we do not have static IP, we have DDNS. Is it possible to do
VPN from one FreeBSD box to another and then.... what? Mount nfs? Mount
smb? I can mount a remote smb volume then share it with another smb
server, but it looks wreid to me and I'm also concerned about speed. I
believe smb is not optimized for speed. If I have to use VPN then I
would like to use the most traffic-efficient method over VPN. Can you
suggest something?
Thanks,
Laszlo
