What are you using your NAT VPS for?

in General

Just curious. I imagine most of the answers will be psuedo-web servers and VPNs but I'm curious of any unique uses for NAT VPSes.

    I've never bought a NAT VPS, but I'm kinda tempted to buy one from i-83.net, even though I'm sure I'll have no use for it.

    Just add it to your collection. It"s an achievement to be collected :)

    Teamspeak for around 15-20 of us at any one time along with a TS bot that's running under Java and Shadowsocks for myself.

    Works great, still got tons of Ram to spare..

    This is on LES with RansomIT Sydney Australia.

    Use to host my personal website.

    Using LES from IH.

    It's great for VPN. I run 2 of my small Gogs instances on such machines, too!

    For the record; I use mine for ZNC. They're nifty little bouncers.

    I use one for SSH jumpers to access other of my servers, that could optimize the speed a little if I want to manage a server at other side of earth.

    And they're good for varius type of proxies.

    Also useful for testing scripts and developing small projects.

    ssh socks proxy to watch BBC iPlayer. I work with a bunch of Scottish guys and they missed the BBC.

    for my personal vpn.

    Most of mine are used for VPNs, proxy servers and hosting sites that don't need to be on port 80.

    The lag on your public Gog instance is insane; sometimes, it takes 3000ms to generate a page... Either that, or the reverse proxy just took a crap

  • seikanseikan Member

    I'm using it for SSH tunnel.

    Reverse Proxy (GRA1) <-> Gogs instance (MTL2) <-> DB Server (DAL1)

    Imagine running multiple DB queries, when the DB server isn't very far away! I know it's disastrous right now but tonight I should be able to move the reverse proxy back to MTL1.

    MTL2 can fetch good speeds if it's just a pull or clone, though!

    I have 1 NAT VPS from inceptionhosting.com. Used it for development and testing. Currently, leave it as "idle".

  • VbroVbro Member

    Can we use them for proxy ? I mean squid proxy..

    I don't see why not, but it would be operating on a non-standard port.

    Sure, just change the port to another port at squid.conf

    I've bought NAT vps from quadhost. OS ubuntu-14.04-x86_64-minimal

    I made couple of changes on squid.conf

    # Squid normally listens to port 3128

    http_port 3128

    # And finally deny all other access to this proxy

    http_access deny all

    to this,

    # Squid normally listens to port 3128

    http_port 12399

    # And finally deny all other access to this proxy

    http_access allow all

    But it wont work. Any idea?
