How do you Reboot a Macbook to use a linux server?

Q. I need to install a linux server on my macbook, but I am having trouble rebooting it and for it to recognize the server. Can someone please help me out?

A. The EFI on mac's is a little tricky to work with. A lot of good info availible on the reEFIt site. A protective MBR is probably the easiest setup to work with.

What are my options to send data securely from a vb.net application to a Linux server?

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.

Check out this website for a very clear tutorial on how to do this.
