run Samba fileserving, run a vpn to a second computer at home, through the school firewall, and run a downstream proxy so people can get unrestricted internet access (from my home adsl connection) Is this possible?
Yes. The fun is making it reliable (my work's firewall has a habit of dropping long running connections if they go too quiet, for example) and making it more legit. Will your home ADSL connection cope with the traffic?
Do any of you have any suggestions?
Have fun! Welcome to the world of sysadmin-ing.
