Now, I can get my email, but am having trouble sending. I want to put my laptop onto my lan via vpn so that I can send eamil from my home account. Also, I want to have access to my computers behind the firewall. I have been given a 192.168.1.x ip, so I am behind a nat or proxy, not sure. Is there a way that I can set up a vpn from where I am? Or, can I use my firewall as a proxy? Can I set up a ssh tunnel to my firewall and then foward that port on my firewall to the appropriate mail/news servers?
