Keep in mind what we are discussing here, a lot of that was off topic. I never said ssh and VPN is the same, or the ssh should replace VPN, it's the other way around.
Now, it seems like you're saying that vpn is more secure because it's often separated and more hardened. I guess that kind of makes sense, but isn't that really an argument for a single, hardened entry-point into the network? Could be anything.. And of course, this has its drawbacks as well =|
- peterwwillis 13y agoIt's an argument for better network and host security. If you have a building you want to secure, you could make a lobby with a man-trap and a guard at the front desk and security keys for the lobby and on each floor. Or you could put a padlock on the back door. You decide whether it's worth the risk. In terms of what to use to remote into your private VPS, just use SSH. A VPN would be overkill.
