 |
|
Hi,
I want to make may connection secure when I surf internet using hotspot. I have account on shell server. I connect to this server
| Code: | | ssh -D 8080 login@server |
and after login I can configure browser (and other programs which can do that) to use Socks server on localhost:8080 and this traffic go through ssh tunnel to my server. But I want to know how I can use this tunnel global, to all programs in system without configuring them. Any ideas?? |

Using a VPN setup of some sort? Maybe look into openvpn. |

| So you just want to force all apps to use the proxy? Are these are windows machines your connecting from? |

A little late.. but anyway..
Take a lock at tsocks (http://tsocks.sourceforge.net/). You can "socksify" any program by executing it through the tsocks wrapper. You configure tsocks to use a socks proxy (the SSH tunneled one in your case). After this you can start any program through the tsocks wrapper, for example:
"tsocks irssi"
DNS-leakage used to be a problem, but in the later (latest?) version you can configure these to be routed through the proxy aswell.
What it does is to add it's own version of the socket lib connect function. By setting the LD_PRELOAD variable to the tsock library, any program that is dynamicly linked to "connect" will use the tsock-version instead.
You can also configure specific address-ranges to be routed through different proxys, or connect directly etc. |
