Hi all,
|
|
|
|
This is proxytunnel, a program that connects stdin and stdout
|
|
to an origin server somewhere in the Internet through an industry
|
|
standard HTTPS proxy. I originally wrote this program to be used
|
|
as an extension to SSH, to be able to SSH to my box at home. In
|
|
this file, I will describe the use with SSH. If you want to use it
|
|
with some other application, feel free, and let me know!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
|
|
Proxytunnel is very easy to use, when running proxytunnel with the help
|
|
option it specifies it's commandline options.
|
|
|
|
# proxytunnel --help

Proxytunnel 1.0.7
|
|
Jos Visser (Muppet) <josv@osp.nl>, Mark Janssen (Maniac) <maniac@maniac.nl>
|
|
|
|
Purpose:
|
|
Build generic tunnels trough HTTPS proxy's, supports HTTP authorization
|
|
|
|
Usage: Proxytunnel [OPTIONS]...
|
|
-h --help Print help and exit
|
|
-V --version Print version and exit
|
|
-i --inetd Run from inetd (default=off)
|
|
-u STRING --user=STRING Username to send to HTTPS proxy for auth
|
|
-s STRING --pass=STRING Password to send to HTTPS proxy for auth
|
|
-g STRING --proxyhost=STRING HTTPS Proxy host to connect to
|
|
-G INT --proxyport=INT HTTPS Proxy portnumber to connect to
|
|
-d STRING --desthost=STRING Destination host to built the tunnel to
|
|
-D INT --destport=INT Destination portnumber to built the tunnel to
|
|
-n --dottedquad Locally resolve destination hostname
|
|
-v --verbose Turn on verbosity (default=off)
|
|
|
|
To use this program with OpenSSH to connect to a host somewhere, create
|
|
a $HOME/.ssh/config file with the following content:
|
|
|
|
Host foobar
|
|
ProxyCommand /path/to/proxytunnel -g proxy.customer.com -G 8080 -u user
|
|
-s password -d mybox.athome.nl -D 443
|
|
|
|
With:
|
|
|
|
- foobar The symbolic name of the host you want to connect to
|
|
- proxy.customer.com The host name of the proxy you want to connect through
|
|
- 8080 The port number where the proxy software listens to
|
|
- user Your proxy userid
|
|
- password Your proxy password
|
|
- mybox.athome.nl The hostname of the box you want to connect to (ultimately)
|
|
- 443 The port number of the SSH daemon on mybox.athome.nl
|
|
|
|
If your proxy doesn't require the username and password for using it,
|
|
you can skip these options.
|
|
|
|
If you want to run proxytunnel from inetd add the '--inetd' option.
|
|
|
|
If you have a broken proxy and use a destination host with dynamic DNS,
|
|
add the -n or --dottedquad, the DNS name will then be resolved locally
|
|
before sending it to the proxy. (Original patch from Ralph Loader
|
|
<suckfish@ihug.co.nz>)
|
|
|
|
Most HTTPS proxies do not allow access to ports other than 443 (HTTPS)
|
|
and 563 (SNEWS), so some hacking is necessary to start the SSH daemon on
|
|
the required port. (On the server side add an extra Port statement in
|
|
the sshd_config file)
|
|
|
|
When all this is in place, execute an "ssh foobar" and you're in business!
|
|
|
|
Share and Enjoy!
