What about: For a lightweight VPN alternative, have a look at ssh + netcat-openssh for SOCKS proxy support!
-- ssh socks proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413054 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Tips, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Server Tips. Status in Ubuntu Server Tips: Incomplete Bug description: To open a dynamic SOCKS proxy with SSH, just use 'ssh -D port u...@host', where port should be your desired proxy port. Then use this forward with any SOCKS compatible application to route traffic through the remote host. You can also use DynamicForward in .ssh/config (look at man ssh_config). (just found out this only works with the netcat-openbsd package) To use a SOCKS proxy with SSH through netcat, add this to your .ssh/config: Host host-via-socks HostName host ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc localhost:8080 %h %p (replace 8080 with your SOCKS port) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-server-tips Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-server-tips More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
