Configuring a Double VPN? (Cascading VPN)
Has anyone here attempted to create a Double VPN?
So like, if I wanna go to google.com
My Home Network --> USA OpenVPN Server --> UK OpenVPN Server --> google.com
Anyone have a tutorial / guide on how to create such a setup?
So All my traffic goes through the USA OpenVPN Server, and from there it goes to the UK one, and finally to the destination.

That's fairly easy actually. But out of curiosity why wouldn't you just connect directly to the UK one? For security reasons? I can imagine throughput will be as slow as hell crossing the ocean twice. Assuming you're not in the USA at the moment.
Also are you talking about connecting to a VPN which subsequently connects you to the next one? Or do you mean to connect to a VPN and set up the 2nd through the tunnel you've just setup before? Quite different approaches.
I don't need it for personal reasons, I just have a ton of spare boxes lying around and the thought came to my mind.
So I wanted to figure out how to set that up.
Either approach you mentioned will work.
I'd prefer if I conenct to one server, which funnels the traffic through server #2.
So that i dont need more than one tap adapter installed on my machine, and only need to use one config file (on the users end)
