Autotunnel is a small Project for setting up ipip-tunnel automatically. This can give you the possibility to have a static ip address although you get a dynamic address by your dial-in provider. You need Linux-2.2.x or 2.4.x kernel on the server and the client to run it. (with ipip support of course)


A client have to connect to an autotunnel daemon, which is setting up the ipip tunnel after the client has authentificated. Authentification is done via PAM, SSL encrypted. So you need libpam and libssl libcrypt

Change into the diectory where you unpacked the tar-ball. Have a look at the Makefile and type 'make' and 'make install' . If you need a new certificate - key pair type 'make key'
The certificate and key is installed /var/autotunnel.

Requirements:
You need the libssl, libcrypto and the openssl command line tool. (ftp://ftp.openssl.org/)
PAM is needed (installed in most systems)
A Kernel >= 2.2.x with ipip support is required (if you are using modules
insmod ipip !)
