Old Irrelevant Articles

Articles that are no longer relevant to bespin but that may have useful information for some future project.

  • Ubuntu/Bespin/Second AP Tunnel - this ended in failure, twice. short version: you can't have multiple simultaneous PIA tunnels in OpenVPN without significant extra configuration, so no need to go this above and beyond.
