Vpn under Linux?
Hi,
in my home network I've a D-Link DSL router and few workstation/server. My private address is classic 192.168.1.0/24 The Dlink router doesn't manage vpn. My goal is to connect from outside, having an ip address like 192.168.1.* How can I obtain this? Thank you |
you won't be able to connect directly using the 192.x.x.x ip. You will have to use the IP assigned to you by your ISP then forward the vpn port to your local ip. You can use something like dyndns to setup a domain name to help make it a little easier.

if your net (192.168.1.x) is connected to internet, and if router support port forward, you may use that feature. in addition to this you may use SSH tunneling instead of configuring of VPN. or: probably(i never did that with merging openvpn subnet with the real one, but i suspect it is possible if you put your nic into PROMISC mode) you can use OpenVPN if you need encrypted channel into your entire LAN.

So, openvpn isn't my solution. |
openvpn is great for this. you will just have to forward your assigned IP to your local IP on whatever port you run your vpn server on. (if your router supports port forwarding)

OpenSSH port forwarding work fine for me, I can connect to my virtual machines, use sshfs to mount my drives and ssh -Y to open applications remotly
