package wnpp retitle 358799 ITA: l2tpd -- A layer 2 tunneling protocol implementation. thanks Hello, I travel quite a bit and have really felt the need for a good VPN solution while I am on the road. I was using l2tpd (and now xl2tpd) in order to make configuration from the client perspective as simple as possible (i.e., it facilitates easily switching between devices as I travel). To that end, I'd like to adopt l2tpd (in order to turn it into a dummy package and facilitate a transition to xl2tpd). The old l2tpd has not seen any activity for a while and it appears that upstream is also still dead. I have already built a preliminary Debian package which I am testing out on my own system. Incidentally, a SourceForge or Gforge project or something like that to facilitate upstream development/support/bug reporting and so on would be good. I have already filed an ITP (bug #427113) [0] for the xl2tpd package. My intent is have that one conflict/replace the l2tpd package. The only thing left for me to implement is handling the migration of the configuration and secrets. Regards, -Roberto [0] http://bugs.debian.org/427113 -- Roberto C.
