[TriLUG] Linux, Vtund, and speakfreely saved the day

[Ralph Blach]

Well, I love linux.  This help me make arrangements for my son to 
evacuate from the path of Hurricane Ivan
very efficently. 

Here the story.  My son goes to St Stanislaus, in Bay St. Louis,Ms and 
he has a linux machine with
speakfreely and vtund.

We use vtund to keep a tunnel up between our two machines so that we can 
use speak freely.

 Well, when it was late, and I need to contact him. I telneted to his 
machine through the tunnel, and started the
speak freely speaker application.  I then started up the speakfreely 
sfmike on my machine and was able to get his attention

He then made his taxi reservations to get to the airport

I love linux.
