Should have checked mainstream providers first - Amazon EC2 offers windows vps free for a year.
Took 10 min to set up.
Now, the problem is - VPN settings do not allow establishing a connection from a remote desktop and I can't think of any solution to overcome this.
Any ideas ?

Forgive my ignorance, I always worked with Microsoft products and hardly seen any linux-based systems.
AnyConnect looks more or less straightforward https://faq.oit.gatech.edu/content/h...t-client-linux
Is it easy to configure the remote desktop ? I will have only a few hours to set up everything ..

Thanks, they don't seem to offer any Windows-based VPSes though ?

Founds a few services in google:
Disk Space
20 GB
Bandwidth
200 GB
RAM
256 MB
IP Addresses*
1/10
Monthly Price
£3.00
Looks good, is 256MB RAM enough to run remote desktop though ?
Also would they normally allow to install AnyConnect and will be Windows servers ?

Also, what sort of package would I need ? RD itself should be roughly 25mb per hour = 200mb per day, don't need any HDD space, not sure about RAM, I guess the minimum will do ..
Thanks
