Turning Friend's PC Into Relay

Post by en7quier » Wed Jul 09, 2014 12:16 am

Hi,

I have maybe a stupid question, but if I understand correctly, it's possible to use this on a different PC, install the VPN SERVER there and then connect to this PC from my PC, getting IP of this VPN SERVER PC?

Thanks.

Thanks,

I'm really sorry for asking, but the documentation is so extensive and I was only able to find tutorials on how to provide my IP to the project, but what I kinda want to do here is pretty much setting SoftEther VPN on my friend's PC, with his agreement, of course, but keeping an exclusive access to only myself.

Is there a tutorial for that or is this pretty much a basic function, which is easy to set up?

I'm really kinda lost here.

Thank you.

Hello again,

thank you, but I'm concerned about this:

"This means that any VPN Gate client users will be able to communicate with Internet servers via your volunteer VPN server.
You must enable the function after fully understanding. If your company or campus doesn't permit users to run such
a relaying program, DO NOT enable the VPN Gate Relaying Function."

Basically, if my friend follows the tutorial, he'll provide his PC as a relay for the entire world, however, I was wondering, if it's possible, that he enables access only for me.

Thank you.
