use proxy on the VPN server

Post by shinjikenny » Fri Jul 29, 2011 9:13 am

i'm using
proto tun

i would like to ask if its possible to hide the VPN server with a proxy? i want to do it like this:


client--->VPN server--->proxy--->website

i want to hide the vpn server's IP by using proxy server and the proxy's IP will appear on the website.
i want the proxy to be between the VPN server and the website only. I don't need to have a proxy between cient and the VPN server. is this possible?

Easy way is just:

(1) client connects to VPN (2) client adds proxy settings to their web browser (3) client browse the web.

Difficult way (maybe):

(1) VPN server forwards all packets directly to the proxy server, using IPTABLES.

None of this will be about OpenVPN though. Its not the task of OpenVPN to do this.
