VPN or Proxy service
| Posted by WingMi, 07-19-2008, 08:39 AM |
| Hi,
I am located in China and I have websites hosted in the US. Some of my sites and servers are being blocked by my ISP. Do you know of a good VPN or Proxy service that will allow me to reach my sites and managed my servers?

| You can try ToR, download it. Do a google search for the download. I believe the link is http://tor.eff.org but I could be wrong.

| I use a service called LiteVPN which uses SSL or PPTP to encrypt your internet session. I do a lot of international travel and I’ve been able to hit any website while connected to their VPN service. I also use it to SSH/telnet into other devices across the globe. You can check them out at http://LiteVPN.com, I recommend signing up for the basic package to see if it will work for you.

| As you mentioned "manage my servers", I assume you have your own servers. So you could install OpenVPN on one of the servers you can reach. As long as you can reach at least one of your servers, you wouldn't need to use some VPN service.

| I signed up for the VPN service at LiteVPN.com. So far, it gives me the access that I need. Thanks to everyone who responded.

| Wing, I know you said you've already got a solution (that LiteVPN thing looks great, I have to say), but as a browser alternative, I've got a friend that runs http://www.redlista.com.
This isn't a good solution for SSH or something along those lines, but for just normal browsing with no install, it is great. There are various similar websites on the net too if you want to google it.
