I use openvpn to connect to my server at home. When I surf the Internet or any of my apps on my phone go to the Internet while I’m on the VPN it’s going out to the internet from my server.
Does anybody know a way to set it up so that whatever goes out from that server goes through expressvpn? I can’t seem to get it to work on the router because openvpn then cannot connect to my server.
As mentioned, there needs to be more info on setup. The OpenVPN tunnel should exist between the router and your client device. Your router then should have rules in place to allow that VPN network segment to talk to your internal network where the server resides.
From the server, you would have the ExpressVPN tunnel built. ExpressVPN probably has an option to allow local network that needs enabled, and then that server would use the tunnel as the default IP route.
At that point, whatever forward proxy you use on the server would just be set to forward incoming HTTPS requests on whatever port.
