Very nice, FREE tool, worth writing about.
iPhone 4 Unlocked
All iPhone4′s will soon be unlocked by Apple. This will follow their announcement of the Verizon iPhone 4G. The unlocked iPhone will have a far higher selling potential in markets like India where operator loyalty is relatively low. Indian operators like Airtel and Vodafone are waiting for this to happen to be able to start selling iPhones.

Redhat/CentOS 5 Linux PPTP VPN Setup
1. Install the Yum Repository for PPTP
rpm -Uvh http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/rhel5/pptp-release-current.noarch.rpm
2. Then proceed with installing ppp & pptpd
yum install ppp
yum –enablerepo=pptp-stable install pptp
On newer CentOS distributions, ppp is already installed and at 2.4.4 or later, as of this writing pptpd needs 2.4.3 , so you may need to remove ppp and have yum install it automatically as a dependancy of pptpd
3. After installation finnish open /etc/pptpd.conf and change the configuration for localip & remoteip
localip 10.0.0.1
remoteip 10.0.0.100-120
4. After that open the file / etc / ppp / options.pptpd and change sesuia ms-dns dns server / isp you (I filled in with open dns ip)
ms-dns 8.8.8.8
ms-dns 8.8.4.4
5. Then make your VPN use
echo “username pptpd password *”>> / etc / ppp / chap-secrets
