does some1 know how i can encrypt traffic between my home pc and a dedicated server / vps??
been told vpn but aint got a clue how to setup and route traffic through it
any 1 done this??
Nice post m8
So what about programmes that need ports open
Would I be able to send them down the VPN tunnel??
Nice
I think me and u will b having a nice chat
does using VPN tunnel affect ping ?
Will it go higher if going through tunnel or it will b same?
Currently my ping is around 12ms to server
As long as it don't go up a huge amount I'm ok
K will want everything to go via tunnel
Plus will need to setup ip tables firewall to block all ports on the open side except a few that I will use
Will do a bit of research regarding the hosting provider and let u know
I'm talking about the side which is connected to open net not tunnelled side
The side which is exposed will b locked down and only 2 / 3 ports open obviously once I got VPN setup correctly and working
Yeh cool
Will have a chat after I done some research and I think will b going openvpn route

If you can afford it, get an ASA (adaptive security appliance), its cisco kit, but you can then use ipsec vpn, and setup ACL's (access control lists), these can be applied in 3 ways. Protocol, direction, port, although this will take a bit more knowledge and configuring, it will be more secure. Depends how secure you want to be, and what you are trying to do really. The ASA will work as a hardware firewall, and will be much more controllable, and customisable. You can download some iOS from various sites, and can be configured remotely. Again depends on how indepth you want to go, and what you're actually looking for.
or with Tomato and DDWRT open vpn server and client are built it, so you can create the VPN tunnel from the router.
I am in process of setting up a vpn connection between 2 sites, both using Tomato routers.
the problem i have is the dedicated server is hosted in a data centre
i have checked and tun/tap is running and enabled
so i cant use routers to do vpn job
need it like a client to client setup
