Hi All,

I live in one Caribbean and my children live in Canada. I would like to create an exit node (not sure about terminology) so that they can VPN into one of my PCs, and then exit onto the internet as if they were present here.
So questions
1. Is this possible with softvpn? and if so
2. What specs do I need for the machine to support max two simultaneous sessions. ( I plan to test with an Intel NUCw with a Celeron processor and 8 gigabytes of ram)
3. What softvpn settings would I need to play with.

This would be my first VPN so I am not sure of the capabilities or terminology.

Many Thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome

Answers
1. Yes, You will setup SE server on that exit-node you meant for + SE server configuration you needed
2. You will ask your children to install SE client or any protocols' client you enabled on SE server

What are your OS (your and your children)?
Go to this page https://softether-download.com/en.aspx and download them accordingly
After installation ask for further configuration

Thanks. I will read the documentation. And I will be setting up on a Windows PC, but kids are going to be on MacOs, iPad and iOS
