Hi everyone, I have a FreeBSD firewall in the office. It's external address is 208.something and internally the address is 10.1.1.1. The netmask is 255.255.0.0 and the internal network is split so that static IP machines have IPs in the 10.1.1.something and DHCP addresses are in the 10.1.2.something realm. Now, I just put a new firewall in my apartment (connected via cable modem) running FreeBSD. Again, the network externally is 207 and change. Internally, the address is 10.2.1.1. The net mask is 255.255.0.0 and static IPs are assigned to 10.2.1.x and DHCP addresses are given in the range 10.2.2.x. Both firewalls use the "SIMPLE" ruleset and natd to pass packets. So, I want to VPN the two firewalls together so that, from home, I can telnet to 10.1.1.5 and login to the machine there. It occurs to me that the way to this involves SSH and PPP, but I do not know the details. When I first configured the office firewall, months ago, I left PPP in the kernel. I'd prefer not to have to reboot as physical access is nearly nil. What is the best option for me here?
