Tunneling, VPN, proxy whatever you call it, its one the fields I forte.

NUS VPN

SOC VPN

NUS WebVPN
http://webvpn.nus.edu.sg

NUS Proxy Server
proxy.nus.edu.sg:8080

NUS Domain
http://spnp.nus.edu.sg/

Whats the use? You use it when you need some resources which is only accessible from campus (intranet).

Here’s something not so obvious. You can access intranet using SOC’s unix account.

SSH. Its more than just an secured telnet. Services can be tunnelled through it. Example? Secured File Transfer.

More fun? Forward the remote port 1755 (host: live-vip-49.nus.edu.sg) locally to get the streams available only in campus. (Hint: see http://nuscast.nus.edu.sg/)

Whats next? Nus Naxos Music Library using its library web proxying service. http://lib.nus.edu.sg/

My networking module has begun to get more exciting. (New web server to code soon perhaps?)
