Re: Getting to an SSH account over a HTTP proxy

2007-01-28 Thread Nanjundi


 problem. I do not want to create my own SSH client and, AFAICT, there
 is no SSH client in Twisted. The library also seem to have some
 problems with handling HTTP proxies in a transparent 
 way:http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/1774

There is a ssh implementation in twisted.
http://twistedmatrix.com/users/z3p/files/conch-talk.html

Are you able to authenticate and run commands using a ssh client on 
port 80?
I will try to post an example if possible.

 I haven't tried to connect over port 80, but its worth a try.

I looked at Twisted, but I did not understand how it could solve my
problem. I do not want to create my own SSH client and, AFAICT, there

 AFAIK, there are no Python modules which support that. The protocol
 itself is fairly simply though, so it shouldn't be too hard to write
 your own wrapper or proxy for the client side. Things get a little more
 complicated if you have to authenticate with the proxy first.

The proxy in question requires authentication. Do you mean that I
should be able to write something that handles the communication to
the proxy and then run a library like paramiko over that? I have no
idea how to do that.

  -NIf you need it for automation you might want to 
  usepexpect:http://pexpect.sourceforge.net/

 It listens to the tty-stream and simulates a user typing in commands. It is
 very useful, e.g. if you want to start processes on many machines over ssh.
 If there are gateways/firewalls between - no problem just use a
 second sendline('ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]')

 The only problem is the regular expression: If e.g. you use a custom $PS1
 variable for your prompt you have to account for that.

Ypu can tunnel ip over anything. (Even email if you like...) Nu tunnel
out from that company was based on http-proxy. A small program called
connect (the final version I used was by Shun-ichi Goto and under
GPL.) Bascilly it makes a http-proxt connect to an other site (my sshd)
Then using sshd and pppd as program inte other end makes a good way to
tunnel IP also :-)

Is there anything that can do what you want? Last time I checked there is no
such thing as SSH-over-HTTP. Are you sure that is possible?

If you implement in the same way as ssh tunnels, the application doesn't
need to know anything about it -- you just talk to a TCP port on localhost.
Good for everyone involved.
