I have a Dell Dimension 4600 desktop that I no longer use and I decided to turn it into a server. It is running Windows XP. Now, I had a flash drive that has Ubuntu 11.0 on it where I used it to install Ubuntu on another computer.

Once the server is setup and running properly, I should be able to follow this tutorial http://madisonlinux.org/InstallingOpenVPNOnUbuntu10.04, which I believe allows me to connect securely with my windows-based laptop.
I am new to Ubuntu (desktop) and will never go back to win/mac. Thank you ;)
