Financial Cryptography: A VPN for the common man!

Financial Cryptography, is a really nice blog (I think it's about knitting) that's as big a fan of the new VPN feature in forthcoming OpenSSH 4.3 as I am:

Financial Cryptography: A VPN for the common man!:

"The problem with VPNs has been partly key management nightmares (a.k.a x.509) and partly install and configuration nightmares. For those reasons, VPNs only really made it into areas where corporates could pay people to get them up and going.

"Adding it to SSH solves both those issues and promises to bring about VPNs for the common Unix machine (including all Macs now).

"Crazy Prediction Time :- within a year of this being released and available, SSH will be the most popular VPN. Within two years, we'll even forget that VPN stood for anything other than a way in which we use SSH."

I hope so, F.C. I hope so.
