The Dotcloud provided by duostack.com is a application development platform
for simple deployment of your stuff.

It also provides an ssh-interface via:
<code>
  dotcloud ssh project.module
</code>

to be able to use it without the hassle of going through the api, you will
need to create an own dsa-key for ssh to use and deploy this public key on
the machine
<code>
  ssh-keygen -t dsa -f dotcloud_project.dss
  cat dotcloud_project.dss.pub (copy the contents to the dotclouds 
  ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2)
</code>
find your dotcloud host ip via 
<code>
  dotcloud info project.module
</code>

You will gain a user shell with
<code>
  ssh dotcloud@module.project -p 5960
</code>
we will need to build some stuff in order to get a working copy of tinc.
Everything needs to be done in userspace.
<code>
mkdir build
cd build
curl http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz | tar xz
cd openssl-1.0.0d
./config --prefix=$HOME/usr -fPIC
make install
cp lib* $HOME/usr/lib
cd ..

curl http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/download/lzo-2.04.tar.gz | tar xz
cd lzo-2.04
./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr

curl http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz | tar xz
cd zlib-1.2.5/
./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr
make install
</code>
before building we need to patch the tinc daemon to run without the need
for a tun device.

tutorial is here:
https://hackerspace.be/TincVPN
<code>

curl http://www.tinc-vpn.org/packages/tinc-1.0.14.tar.gz | tar xz
cd tinc-1.0.14
#apply patch here
./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr --sysconfdir=$HOME/etc \
--localstatedir=$HOME/var --with-openssl=`pwd`/../openssl-1.0.0d/ \
--with-openssl-lib=`pwd`/../openssl-1.0.0d/ \
--with-zlib-include=$HOME/usr/include --with-zlib-lib=$HOME/usr/lib
make
make install
mkdir ~/etc
mkdir ~/var
cd ~/painload/modules/retiolum/scripts/tinc_setup
./install  cloudkrebs 10.7.7.221
</code>

be sure to fix the portnumber in the generated host file and add your own
address in hosts/cloudkrebs:
<code>
Address = my.public.address
Port = 1655

PUBKEY
</code>

also write the right in tinc.conf:
<code>
Name = cloudkrebs

Mode = switch
#device = ...
# no device :)
</code>
