Do these services actually provide a (virtual) private network. For example: can I see my home machine and my phone on the same private network? And then connect them using ssh/scp?

- krisnelson 8y agoZeroTier (https://www.zerotier.com/ https://www.zerotier.com/ ) does this. I use it successfully on Windows, Linux, Mac. I've heard positive things about Tinc as well (https://tinc-vpn.org/ https://tinc-vpn.org/).
- ghostly_s 8y agoTypically if you're trying to provide VPN access to your own private network, you would run your own VPN server on that network.
