Hi!
I am not a completely unexperienced user of Debian, but sometimes
certain subsystems and choices still puzzle me. Right now this
is IPSec.
There used to be several implementations, but am I right that
the only sensible one right now is Strongswan?

I am currently fighting with the following problem: I've got a system

The dmz is IPv6 only, a homelab testbed more or less.

Hi fellow Debian users!
In my quest to advance the IPv6 preparedness of my home LAN I want to
find a solution to use IP tokens on all my clients. IP tokens (keeping
the host part of the IPv6 address static while getting the subnet part
by SLAAC) seem very elegant to me, because it avoids DHCPv6 co
