Yes, this is just to bookmark what Romain contributed. VPNs can be created by ssh plus “tun” devices; debian-administration.org has a very nice write-up including proper set up of the authorized_keys file to not allow generic ssh root access.

Please, can everybody add big disclaimers on all ssh + ppp based HOWTO's that this is obsolete? Or is there a reason I'm still doing it that way other than the omnipresence of said documentation?

This is my biggest frustration with searching for FOSS information with Google. When the first guy writes up the hairy, overly complex procedure he used to solve some problem, everyone links it, and the article has huge Google karma. Meanwhile, others come up with better, cleaner solutions, or the distros solve the problem altogether, but any web search still points to the original document. There isn't a clean way of indicating that a work is obsolete if the owner won't modify it or pull it down.
