Vpn

[mrudling]

Good day all,

Some of you might have followed my webcam thread, thanks for the help, what it is boiling down to is the fact that im behind a linux box that will not alow any connections to my pc from the internet.

I have tried Hamachi as a vpn package but when i connect from a remote connection it shows the the computer im trying to access is online but unreachable!

Is there a sure fire way to get vpn running on my pc or is it just not going to happen? i would like to be able to access my webcam server and mabey do some remote-desktop.

Any help will be great.
Thanks

I often VNC to my office server through VPN. Not sure about the webcam issue though. Our linux server is running Debian. Not sure how exactly it was set up.

at work there are just 2 pcs, office and workshop, the workshop pc is connected to the office one, office pc is connected to the internet via wireless connection. (not the same isp) ics is enabled on office pc alowing workshop pc to connect.

could you explain to me what i need to do on the office pc? i have installed hamachi on workshop and office pcs, they can access eachother 100% - the fact that they on the same lan makes it a bit pointless, but was just to test.

arnt all the settings that i need to do on my side not on the office pc? im going home at 12 to try udp port forwarding on my router but i fear this will be pointless if its just going to be blocked on the isp side.

if there is anyone out there with hamachi running that could join my network to test it out.

thanks
