Regarding OpenVPN: Yeah I just tried that myself for the first time today. It made some complaint about "openvpn: unsatisfied recommendation for kernel-module-tun", so perhaps it's not quite that simple, or maybe I'm still missing something. In any case, very sweet. I'll certainly be making use of that at my workplace. Also, if any of you are interested, there's plenty of Pre hacking goodness over at predev.wikidot.com. Take a look at what's available already: http://predev.wikidot.com/system:list-all-pages . I'm currently installing the WebShell SSH client. - John
