Question by Andrew: How to set up a home VPN server!?
Okay, so what I want to do is set up a VPN server on my computer, so that at school, with my iPod touch I can use the VPN options on the ipod to connect to the internet connection my home uses. I’ve tried different tutorials but they all seem to be for computer to computer, not ipod to computer. If it helps, the vpn configurations the iTouch uses is L2TP, PPTP, and IPSec. Please find me a tutorial that will work! I am smart with computers so you don’t need to be SUPER descriptive, but the more descriptive, the better! Thanks!

Your school will be blocking all of these protocols because they run on known ports. So ti won’t work. If you have something like web sense to deal with only a application like this http://www.surfbouncer.com/stealth_ssl_vpn.htm will work.
