What is the easiest way to set up a VPN server on a Windows machine with dynamic DNS?

Tip for best answer: M$0.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Use Hamachi. It's like a cross between VPN and AIM. The Hamachi servers work as a go-between and manages your connections for you. You can have multiple private networks with multiple members of each network and manage them as though they were different interfaces on your machine. And Dynamic DNS isn't required

It is as simple as:

1 - install the software on both machines
2 - create a new login
3 - create a new network
4 - join the network on the other machine

I've configured and maintained my own VPN services on Windows and Linux and this is a /much/ easier solution. The regular version is free. There is a pro option but it is rarely required - free will get you everything you need.

The only thing this doesn't address is accessing the 'VPN' from mobile devices.

Note - this also drastically simplifies firewall configurations.
