[Qemu-devel] Interesting QEMU + OpenVPN

[Jonathan Kalbfeld]

I have an instance of NetBSD 3.0.1 that runs inside of QEMU emulating an i386.

On the parent system, whether it is Windows, Linux, Solaris, or *BSD,
you can run an OpenVPN instance and set up a tunnel.

On the guest system, you can then run OpenVPN and connect to the other
end of the tunnel.

Voila!  Now, from the parent system, you can connect directly to your
QEMU instance by using the tunnel.

I set this up on my Sun Blade and am using it to test protocols.  My
next task will be setting up a Virtual Ethernet Bridge between an
emulated i386 on QEMU here in LA and a real-live NetBSD brick at my
parents' home in Detroit.

Interesting stuff!
