An excellent suggestion. Thanks! Now *this* is something I'd love to
see in Fedora, nicely integrated with system-network-config. Alexandre,
I *think* it is supposed to handle dynamic IP endpoints. Never having
used it before, I got it built, installed, and working in under an
hour. It also supports a bridged config so that protocols which depend
upon broadcast (SMB, IPP?) "just work". I just did the simpler 'routed'
vpn for now though.
