Hi,

I have a FC5 VPS (Xen), and I want to be able to connect to it from my Windows XP Pro machine at home.

The main reason I want to do this is I want to send all internet traffic through a secure connection be it http, ftp and p2p to the VPS and out to the public on the VPS IP address.

It's possible on Windows to Windows when I setup an "Incoming Connection" on the server and connect through a VPS on the client.

Was wondering if its possible to do on FC5.

Thanks
