Myself and a few other remote staff are having to get an ip whitelisted by our IT dept. every time we move locations (coffee shops, etc.) so we can connect to our openvpn server in the office. This is getting frustrating.
Is there a configuration we can setup on Linode or DigitalOcean with a cheap box that has a static IP and we connect to that server which maintains a constant openvpn connection to our office?
I'm a mobile dev engineer so I'm capable - just not up to date with networking and this type of setup solutions.
Thanks!
Static IP "Middleman" server!!

Yes .. and for a small but fair fee, I could set it up for you: tincanteksup <at> gmailjohnmickenzy wrote: ↑Sat Feb 02, 2019 3:50 pmIs there a configuration we can setup on Linode or DigitalOcean with a cheap box that has a static IP and we connect to that server which maintains a constant openvpn connection to our office?
Note: This action could be perceived by your employer as a security breach and lead to severe reaction...
