JFTR: It's not necessary that a (3rd party) tunnel service provider exists for using aiccu. What equally suffices to make use of it (and hence IMHO validates its existence in Debian) is freely available code for tunnel servers you can run yourself. > which is what I believe aiccu implements. According to the README, aiccu also supports other tunneling protocols, namely two variants of 6in4/RFC 2893. According to the man page it additionally also supports TINC. There surely exist other server backends for 6in4 and TINC. I though haven't found any other AYIYA server implementation. Leaves us with TIC, the Tunnel Information and Control protocol. We also need a server for that as TIC seems to be the common ground for all the above mentioned tunneling protocols if used with aiccu. And for TIC, there exists at least one free server implementation (although so far not packaged for Debian): https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::SixXS::TIC::Server https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Net-SixXS/script/sixxs-tic-server While it only seems to allow one user, it seems to suffice to tell aiccu where it should connect to, at least according to its description. I will probably play around with that to become my own tunnel provider, but that will be unlikely before the release of Stretch.
