Yes I could roll my own tunnel like that since I can't find any. Anyhow, the VPS sucks I'll get a real one.

Can't be bothered with the hassle and will just get a decent host so I can open tun devices, wasted too much time already just so I could access certain ranges that by block can't.<br />
<br />
I'll give you the points rather than delete the Q.

I've got a cheap VPS running Linux under OpenVZ. It won't let me create TUN or TAP devices so the only other solution I could think of was to NAT it via a SOCKS server such as this one:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://transocks.sourceforge.net/" rel="ugc">http://transocks.sourceforge.net/</a><br />
<br />
Which only supports SOCKS4 so isn't of any use.<br />
<br />
I only intend to route certain address blocks through the tunnel.<br />
<br />
Is there any solution to this problem or am I going to have to get a better VPS or patch transocks to support UDP?<br />
<br />
Considering how much time that would take, I think I would just get a VPS with more &quot;root&quot;.

Transparently route UDP traffic under Linux across SOCKS (or alternative solutions)

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
