CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

I have a paid web site via yahoo, and I was wondering if I'd be able to use it as a proxy so I could watch Hulu here in Korea. Free proxies all register as proxies, but I should be able to avoid this using my own site, since Hulu and others would never be able to use it as a proxy.

Would this be possible?

If you get a server and run a proxy on it, you can. Yahoo hosting won't do it, though.

If you have a server onto which you can install software, then yes - you can do this. If you are just letting someone host your code, then probably not. squid would work for the HTML, but it sounds like what you really want to do is reflect all traffic from one server off another. If I was to recommend a solution, it would be to create a VPN in the states, and then use THAT to reflect your traffic. If you can install software on your server, you might want to consider openVPN. If you've got enough bandwidth and processing power, it should work OK.

From Wikipedia:
"Hulu videos are currently offered only to users in the United States.[3] In order to ensure that no international users outside the U.S. have access to the video channel, Hulu has blocked many anonymous proxies and virtual private networks."

... Looked at OpenVPN, but I really don't understand any of that server based stuff... I mean, to even use a proxy on Firefox, I have to have an ip address, but according to the whois thing on my site, my site has had MANY IPs since its inception... Also, if Hulu can tell that I'm using the VPN software anyhow, it would be pointless...

...

Can you use a dyn-dns service?

That was kind of a vague wiki post. I suspect this should be read as:

"many anonymous (proxies and virtual private networks)"
and not
"many (anonymous proxies) and virtual private networks."

If you run your own VPN, they can't actually differentiate that traffic from legitimate NAT traffic at the server end.
