SoftEther VPN User Forum

How can I configure the VPN server to forward internet connections onto my VPN client? For Example:

- Softether VPN Server hosted on DigitalOcean cloud Ubuntu Linux server
- Softether VPN client on PC
- Windows 10 PC has a web service that I want anonymized and encrypted such as an X server, or bit torrent client. EG Is listening on port 6010

How can I configure my VPN so that other internet connections heading for my VPN IP address port 6010 will be sent to my Windows 10 PC via the VPN instead of the VPN server?

I'm guessing the answer might be something to do with bridging, but I am not sure how that helps and what that exactly does to allow this, nor how to set this up.

Help please.

Software version: softether-vpnserver-v4.19-9605-beta-2016.03.06-linux-x64-64bit.tar.gz
Server Configured as a VPN server
I do not think there is a firewall between VPN server and the internet.

I think ssh port forwarding is enough for your goal.

If you want to use VPN, install VPN client in VM, and do port forwarding to client.

Thanks, but what if your app on your PC that is listening on port 6010 for connections then for each incoming connection opens another port specific to that connection? In that case you'd need any port forwarded to your PC from the VPN server out on the internet. Thoughts?

Sorry I can't catch your meaning exactly.
Anyway, I think SSH suite for your purpose.
ssh -R 6010:localhost:6010 DigitalOcean-hostname
