And there we go, *finally* a solid reason someone answered as to why  
ipsec (or other vpn tech) exists, when ssh tunnels are so easy and  
*everywhere*.

While I still absolutely love my ssh tunnels, this is the most  
solidly compelling reason to setup ipsec I've ever seen.  Although  
ssh tunnels are so easy and flexible, this article just makes plain  
sense...
