Thread: VPN & Proxy server


so... (total noob ubuntu/linux)

want set vpn , proxy (i think) server can connect ipad work or hotspots , have security.

side note way can connect ipad @ work through vpn since dudes don't equipment don't own accessing network. use vpn can't accused of sniffing proprietary information visiting suppliers. (i work @ big multi-national manufacturing corporation...)

yes, there paid services, that's not point of having linux box running @ home it?

anyway, topology imagine need is:

[wireless ipad out on internet]=>=[vpn]=>=[home firewall]=>=[proxy server]=>=[back out internet]

ipad can connect through vpn pptp, l2tp or ipsec protocols.

can connect xp home machine pptp no issues, won't (for reason) let me out internet. it's wife's primary machine don't want mess much. has annoying habit of putting standby mode when she's not using it.

links files , basic pointers cool. i'm totally ignorant of basic home networking , need pointed right language , terminology use.



far have samba running , connected nas raid dlink box , have internet access sockso music player (though doesn't work on ipad... cool pointless far.) i'll home distributed music server set up, that's later.

or there better way? (my real consideration free... or so.) vpn > bridge > internet?
