Re: VPN versus SSH

OR, is it the case that you don't need a VPN server on
the GREEN and that all you have to do is set up the
VPN connection in Smoothwall(specifying both ends and
enabling).  Then you can connect to the Smoothwall
from the RED connection you just set up.  Once
connected, you have access to all of the GREEN
network?

Is this how VPN works?  I have been trying to figure
it out for a while now...  So, PLEASE correct me if it
does not work this way.

I can see how this would be much better than using
SSH.
