My school recommends using a VPN since the wireless network is unencrypted. Plus, it would be totally cool to be able to print and VNC from school. I am trying to figure out what I would need to do to set up a VPN for my network, but I don't really know where to start. All help is appreciated.
My Network:
Airport Extreme (apparently can't act as it's own VPN server)
-> Mac Pro - Always on and always behind airport. I can use this as my server, but I'd like to be able to let it go to sleep for power bill reasons.
MacBook - Used both at home and at school.
iPhone - Used at home and school
It appears that I need VPN server software. I don't own OSX Server, so which server software is best. Obviously OSS is preferable, and failing that free (as in $) is next best. What do y'all recommend?
Also, please answer questions that I didn't know to ask.
(btw, I tried to search, but couldn't find anything. Feel free to flame at me for not searching well enough, but please post links to threads too).
