I'm trying out the new Dynamic port forwarding feature of ssh, testing on the local machine. My tired brain must be missing something.
I initiate the connection: ssh -vvv -D8000 localhost enter my passphrase, and successfully begin a session. Now I use a browser configured to use a SOCKS4 proxy at port 8000. I try to load a URL and get some repetitive blocks of debug messages, ending with: debug3: channel_close_fds: channel 2: r 8 w 8 e -1 debug1: Connection to port 8000 forwarding to socks4 port 0 requested. debug1: fd 8 setting O_NONBLOCK debug2: fd 8 is O_NONBLOCK debug1: channel 2: new [dynamic-tcpip] debug2: channel 2: pre_dynamic: have 0 debug2: channel 2: pre_dynamic: have 496 debug1: channel 2: zombie debug1: channel 2: garbage collecting debug1: channel_free: channel 2: dynamic-tcpip, nchannels 3 debug3: channel_free: status: The following connections are open: #1 client-session (t4 r0 i1/0 o16/0 fd 5/6) debug3: channel_close_fds: channel 2: r 8 w 8 e -1 ---- The page, needless to say, does not load. It must be something obvious; what could I be missing? Something to do with doing it on localhost?
