17 hm yes true. Because I'm sure some people know that here and it's about
18 network, server, gentoo is a network based operating system.(<-ok this
19 is not somehow true but..)
20 Because you guys are damn good geeks so I would find some common
21 interest here.

23 Ok I know this subject can relate to hacking where my point is not here
24 at all. I just poped on configuring my server on that security issue.
25 If not using SSL with proper certificate it was made possible to tunnel
26 my remote communication with my server.
27 And then I found also this HTTP Tunnel module in my webmin.
28 So I wanted to have more information about all this, and so you're the
29 people I relate too.
