I want my laptop to be always routable, whatever network it's on. Starbucks, home or office. miredo is packaged in Archlinux, but I'm not sure how to use it. I'm in Malaysia and I don't want to bridge to my Bitfolk VPS in the UK (IIUC), because that will be painfully slow surely. I thought of the use case I want to solve. I write Web applications for Android. I want to demo them whilst they run on my laptop using an Apache config like so: VirtualDocumentRoot /srv/www/%0 So I want to setup an arbitrary sub domain name, mycooldemo.dabase.com and /srv/www/mycooldemo.dabase.com serves the content from my laptop. And on my Android phone I don't have to setup any special DNS and I'm able to connect to my laptop. I don't necessarily want to connect over WLAN since I might want to test it over 3G. -Still dreaming :) -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
