I got this to work successfully! In fact, I'm sending this message through an SSH tunnelled http session right now!.
Here's what I did. 1) Download "proxy" from analogx.com: www.analogx.com/contents/download/network/proxy.htm This is a windows based proxy server. Install it on a windows box running on your internal network. It's super easy, just run the install and read the readme. 2) Start the proxy server on your windows box. 3) Set up port forwarding in your ssh session to your from some localhost port (I used 8080) to your internal windows proxy server on port 6588 (proxy's port). 4) From work (I dialed in), ssh to your LRP Router/LEAF. 5) On your browser, set the browser to use a proxy server. The hostname is "localhost" and the port is whatever localhost port you used in step 3 above. (again, I used 8080). 6) Start up your browser, and VOILA! you have secured browsing -- It's secure between your office an home, but not secure behind your LEAF -- but then again, that's why we have a LEAF, right! 7) You can verify that your LEAF is doing the proxy, by, from you LEAF ssh session, doing an ipchains -ML (or whatever your command is to look at masqueraded sessions). You should see something from the IP of your internal windows proxy to the site you are browsing. Happy Secure Surfing! mike.
