Should this be included in the wiki?

I ran into a problem with a client running an IPFire firewall, where
they had employees using teamviewer.com to access their workstations
after hours, effectively bypassing the security of the router.

I came up with a solution. Possibly not the best one as it requires
building a separate name server, but it at least works. I wrote a "How
To" on one of my sites, but if you think it would be useful, let me know
where I should put it.

Feel free to tell me there are better ways to do it or there are better
uses of the web site.

Ok, I'm happy to put it out there (I think it should reside on the
IPFire site, not just have a link to my site). The second question is,
where do I put it. It doesn't seem to fit in any of the existing
categories at http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/start.

I guess what I'm asking now is, should we have a new category "Tips and
Tricks" or "How To" or something, or should this go into something
completely different. Guess what I'm asking is where should we document
how to do things once the firewall/router is set up and running.

I actually have a few things I think would be good on the site; one is
installation and configuration of the OpenVPN GUI client for various
operating systems
(http://wiki.linuxservertech.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=5&id=65)
and another is setting up OpenVPN on an Android and/or iPad
(http://wiki.linuxservertech.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=5&id=169)
though both need to be redone before I actually moved them.

Anyway, I have no problem keeping them on my site; I just feel people
should get used to looking at the IPFire site. I'd create links to the
IPFire site in my site once it was done.
