I've been keen on IPSec for some time ... I've even had it running between selections of hosts, but I havn't been able to set up two scenarios that would make it actually useful to me: 1) Wireless DHCP laptop <-- tunnel mode --> gatewaybox 2) Home box on Cable Modem (DHCP) <-- tunnel mode --> office The basic blocking point is that none of the HOWTO's written on the subject say anything about dynamic clients. I would really like to see a HOWTO (from someone working on this stuff) that assumes the client is roaming.
