Running a webserver behind a firewall I have no access to
- by reijin
I'm having a bad time in my student appartment: I want to run a webserver on my Laptop, which should be reachable from outside of the net.
I'm sitting behind some proxy-server that passes outgoing packets to the matching server. But when it comes to incoming messages - it wouldn't route them correctly to my PC. (Seems like packets only get passed if some PC from within the student-flat is already connected to the sending server)
In the past I had a small virtual private server that was sending incoming website-requests over a reverse shell to my PC. Which then returned the website content, and the visitor could see my website. Sadly I dont have that server anymore...
Do you have any idea that might solve my problem?
Greetings,
