Q. It's an Ubuntu Linux server with Apache 2.2. What are my choices for sending secure SQL queries AND secure information (separate from the queries) to the server? (The server is also running MySQL and PHP, and I am very comfortable programming in both). Thanks!
A. HTTP over SSL with authentication, I presume - either using a client certificate, or a password scheme like authentication/basic . You can wrap most tcp/ip applications in SSL, so you could make direct SQL connections in principle, if MySQL is listening on the network and is suitably secured with passwords. I know that's possible in Linux, but I'm not sure what one can do in vb.net.
How to install a proxy server on a Linux server and use it from my Windows computer?
Q. My Linux server is in the USA. I'm in Canada. I want to use my Linux server as a proxy to be "detected" as coming from the USA when I surf the web. Thank you for your help!
It would be nice to have a step-by-step how-to.

A. A very easy and non-permanent way to do this can be done using ssh. You could use cron to automate this so that it is always on, or on at certain times.

How do I remotely execute Command Line commands from my laptop to a Linux Server?
Q. I am trying to download and install Icast 2 on a remote Linux server. I have rights to the server and can also FTP or access CPanel remotely, but want to remotely execute commands on the Linux Server to install and configure the Icecast and other software. THANKS!!!
A. I assume you are coming from a Windows Machine ? This Linux server most likely has SSH running opposed to Telnet so you need to setup a session using putty. You can also send files over ssh using a free app such as winSCP. Another option is to setup a vncsession on the server , and connect with a remote desktop session.
