I live in Canada, I want an american IP (Speficily? So I can watch netflix on my WDTV).

I have a dedicated virtual server in California.

How do I use my VPS (CentOS 5/64Bit, PLESK) as a DNS.

The services you mention have two components:

  1. DNS server that redirects only some domains to a tunnel/proxy.
  2. Tunnel/Proxy server that makes your traffic look like it is coming from it.

The 'secret sauce' is generally how a transparent proxy server is setup for #2 and selecting which hosts to redirect in #1 so only the needed traffic goes through the tunnel/proxy.

Would this work?

  1. I changed the DNS to give me acces to the US Netflix using Unblock US (208.122.23.22)
  2. I logged in using the account I had already created on the UK/IRL Netflix.
  3. Then I changed my DNS settings to Google (8.8.8.8) - restarted the WD TV, opened the Netflix app and this time it logged me straight into the UK/IRL Netflix storefront.

Otherwise, set the VPS to be a proxy for your network connection.

You can achieve the hole process by using tunlr service and it's for free. No vps, no VPN or no proxy ! All you have to do is point your DNS to there service .

How it Works :- 

Tunlr does not provide a virtual private network (VPN). Tunlr is a DNS (domain name system)
unblocking service. We’re using sophisticated technologies (a.k.a. the Tunlr Secret Sauce ©)
to re-adress certain data envelopes, tricking the receiver into thinking the envelope 
originated from within the U.S. For these data envelopes, Tunlr is transparently creating a 
network tunnel from your location to our U.S.-based servers. Any data that’s not directly 
related to the video or music content providers which Tunlr supports is not only left 
untouched, it’s also not even routed through Tunlr. In order to use Tunlr, you will have to 
change the DNS address.

What You need to do :- is use there DNS 

The primary (preferred) DNS IP address is:

142.54.177.158

The secondary (alternate) DNS IP address is:

198.147.22.212

It should work on your pc and WDTV as well. No need to set your vps as DNS server. If you have privacy concern then I suggest you check out and follow this instruction.
