Re: Setting up remote access

First you need to know what kind of remote access is provided by the server.
There are several protocols such as SSH, RDP (Windows Remote Desktop), VNC, web.

You might not be able to do it, as Ogero lately give NAT ip's (fake ip's). Make sure they always give you real ip.

Just make sure you use VPN that is friendly with NAT. L2TP, openvpn or similar, should be trivial task then.
PPTP sometimes gives hell and its not secure.
