OpenVPN and Fastweb

peppefava

Hi to all.

I'm new on VPN. I would like you to suggest me any guide/tutorial/howto to create my own VPN with OpenVPN to access to my home LAN through Fastweb ISP.
I've been looking around and it seems that the configuration is impossible according to this post:

http://www.lorenzomonti.it/sistemi-operativi/realizzare-una-vpn-per-collegare-gli-utenti-itineranti-alla-sede-centrale-usando-linux-e-openvpn/

since Fastweb is a NAT-ted network, so not accessible from outside.

I'm running Kubuntu 12.10 on both the (wish it could be) VPN server and one of the (wish it could be) clients, then Win7 on another (wish it could be) client.
Any suggestion, please?
Thanks.
Regards.

Your best bet is to have a third party server and connect your house and clients both out to it.

What do you mean by "third party server" ?

Do you have any list of free & safe third party servers?

Thanks,
regards.

Rent a VPS from somewhere, rent a dedicated server from somewhere.. something. Set up a VPN externally. VPS are really inexpensive for a small workload. You can get away with a 256MB MB one for one roaming client and a home network, for example. Check out LowEndBox for some starters.
