Hello Augustine,
Option two looks hopeful. The DMZ`ed computer is an
always-on server
that is serving content to the internet. Would it be possible to only
route the IPIP packets while leaving everything else for the server?
How could that be done?
Yes, that's completely possible as that's what proper routers "do". The
key points / issues will be:
- What OS is running on your brother's computer? I believe any
Linux, Free/Open/NetBSD will work fine
- You will need to setup a proper firewall on your brother's
computer to allow the good, block the bad traffic
- You will need to enable forwarding of protocol 4 traffic (that's
the IPIP protocol which is different than say TCP or UDP) to your AMPR
computer
Much of all of this is covered on the AMPR Wiki, etc -
http://wiki.ampr.org/wiki/Main_Page (scroll down on the front page) to
see various OS-specific documents. Also search the Ampr email archives
at http://hamradio.ucsd.edu/mailman/listinfo/44net . The Mailman system
doesn't offer decent searching functions and some of the previous
popular email search engines like gmane.org are gone. Hopefully you can
find another search system which will work for you.
