### Proxy bouncing support
- Add multi-level proxy bouncing support (with syntax for it)
eg. proxytunnel -p local-proxy:port -r remote-proxy1:port -r remote-proxy2:port -d %h:%p
- Add proxy bouncing authentication support (with syntax for it)
eg. proxytunnel -p user@local-proxy:port -r user@remote-proxy:port -d %h:%p
or: proxytunnel -p username:password@local-proxy:port -r username:password@remote-proxy:port -d %h:%p
### SSL proxy support
- Lobby for the Apache project to allow CONNECT over SSL (much like GET,
PUT and HEAD is supported over SSL)
see: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29744
### Generic improvements
- Allow to add more than one HTTP header
eg. -H "User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Win32)" -H "Keep-Alive: 300" -H "Connection: keep-alive"
---> Work-around is using newlines in your single -H argument
---> But shouldn't be too hard, to support multiple -H's
### Code cleanup
- Fix permissions in subversion tree (some files are wrongly executable)
- Adopt a style guide for C (different styles are now being used)
- Find some hardcore C experts to help us improve the code quality
- Improve the error output, make it consistent throughout the program
- Add different verbosity-levels (with or without data exchange)
- Get rid of the "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"
message when proxytunnel fails to set up tunnel. proxytunnel should give a
sensible cause instead of the weird ssh error.
(Users need to understand that proxytunnel fails, not ssh itself)
### Documentation
- Add all documentation in asciidoc standard
- Fix the man page (does not seem to match the current set of options)
### Add default test-cases
- Before releasing proxytunnel, we should validate the different error-cases
+ local proxy does not exist (unresolvable)
+ local proxy exists but does not answer (tcp timeout)
+ local proxy does not talk HTTP
+ local proxy is not a proxy (does not accept CONNECT)
o remote proxy does not exist (unresolvable)
o remote proxy exists but does not answer (tcp-timeout)
+ remote proxy does not talk HTTP
+ remote proxy is not a proxy (does not accept CONNECT)
