A comment on Show HN: A simple SSH VPN client. Parent comment
1) xiringuito is great for UDP. I had issues with RTP streams (UDP, random ports) running over sshuttle , though they run perfectly over SSH tun/tap.
2) I can run low-level non-TCP, non-UDP, IP protocols like OSPF over tunnels I create with tun/tap.
3) xiringuito does not require python. Not everybody loves python.
Overally I am a fan of sshuttle, but the way it's made prevented me from using it in a few cases, so I created xiringuito ;)
