Re: Low power SSH Tunneling

["Geoff H" <yahoo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you want something that will work 'out of the box'
then take a look at the Gumstix range http://www.gumstix.com

These will cost around =A3200 once import duties are paid but are
very good.

The Linksys NSLU2 should be capable of doing this.
You may be able to find a precompiled image on the net that someone else
has already made.

The Gumstix will happily take care of your tunnelling needs and you can
pro=
bably set
it up to act as a proxy as well.

Details of the software pre-loaded on it can be found here http://tinyurl.c=
