VPN services leak info via IPv6

Earlier this year, we released a set of packer scripts that allow you to easily build a two-factor ready openvpn virtual appliance. We have updated the scripts to turn off IPv6 because it seems that VPN services using Openvpn can leak information via IPv6. (This was surely the easy fix. There may be better ones.)

I continue to believe that companies and organizations will need to deliver not just software but configurations. This update to our packer scripts shows how updates can be added and maintained over time. Eventually, IaaS providers like Amazon, Google, Digital Ocean, etc will make it easy to pull containers from services like Docker Hub and launch these configured containers for users. It will be as easy launch such a container configured to your needs as it is to use a VPN service - or any SaaS service.
