Hey guys, I want  to play LAN games with my friends, but from all our own houses. I wanted to do this using a VPN. Seemed like a perfect plan. I set up a VPN server on my Windows XP machine. Then I connected and all was fine. So I sent some information to my buddy, and he couldn't connect. The error message told hem there already was a connection of the same kind. That was me.

 

Now I have been searching for a multi client VPN server, but I can't find any good software. I know I could install windows server, but I'm not physically at the computer. I only have a TeamViewer connection with it. This means I can't install a new operating system.

 

Does any of you guys know good software to setup a VPN? And please, don't come with Hamachi or Tunngle, I don't like them...

 

Thx

you could try logmein's Hamachi

Hamachi your kidding right most unsafe VPN and server hosting program there is NEVER use it but back to the topic there are certain VPNs that allowed you to edit your internet settings on the PC to connect to a different PC I know in the UK we have companies that allow you to connect to theirs although I am unsure of any if the US you could try hotspot shield which is free and works quite well  you get one ad which can be removed with adblock anyway :3

I don't like Hamachi. And it's limited to like 5 people or so.
