Hello,
At FOSDEM 2010 (http://fosdem.org/2010/), I will give a lightning talk titled
"tinc: the difficulties of a peer-to-peer VPN on the hostile
Internet". The
talk will probably be on Saturday 7th of Februari at 15:20 CET, but this might
still change.
If you would like to meet at FOSDEM with me or other persons using or
developing tinc, just reply to this email.
The abstract of the talk is:
"Rather than configuring tunnels, a tinc VPN is more or less specified by
its
endpoints. The tinc daemons will automatically set up tunnels in order to
create a full mesh network. The problem in today's Internet is that many
users
are trapped behind NAT, and ISPs are known to drop ICMP packets, IP fragments,
and/or UDP packets, making reliable connections between peers difficult.
Another problem is how to manage authentication and authorization in a fully
decentralized, but user-friendly way. In this talk I will look at solutions
already implemented in tinc and other VPN software, and I look at future work
to solve the remaining problems."

Hi There, I would really like to meet Guus, other tinc users/developers and be there for FOSDEM however at this stage, I won't be able to. I was wondering if it would be possible to record the talk?

I will try to reserve half an hour there later at that day. We can discuss the direction of tinc development there. Let me know if you are interested in joining! http://fosdem.org/2010/news/new-bof-room-informal-meetings -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <guus at tinc-vpn.org> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
