<p>If you are not averse to having Python installed the remote computer, and can live without UDP, you could give Sshuttle a try:</p>

<p>Works well for forwarding more than just a few ports - i.e. a whole network - (assuming you can run Python on the far end - think port forwarding).</p>

I've not found much.<br /><br />No, but I suspect that's due to the fact that learning the few<br />command-line flags for tunneling is a bit higher learning curve than<br />most people are willing to put up with. That said, ssh tunnelling is<br />*immensely* useful for day-to-day development/sysadmin type<br />activities.<br /><br />I use it exclusively to connect to our EC2 cluster, i
n lieu
of a<br />full-fledged VPN. It's fast, simple, reliable, and doesn't require any<br />additional configuration on the server side of things.<br /><br />As an example of how I use ssh tunneling on a near-daily basis: Sequel<br />Pro, a MySQL client for OSX, supports accessing the remote DB over an<br />ssh tunnel. So all you need to do is give Sequel Pro the ssh server<br />name, your username, and db credentials and Bob's your uncle. Instant<br />secure, remote database access.<br /><br />Oh, I did think of one very popular service that leverages ssh<br />tunnelling - github. When pushing commits to any repository on github,<br />you're tunnelling git over ssh<br /><br />-Erik<br />P.S. I know this has been discussed on the list before, but it's<br />useful enough to bear repeating: One more frequent use case is giving<br />yourself a secure SOCKS-compatible proxy. This is very useful on<br />public, untrusted networks to allow you to tunnel all of your browsing<br />traffic
through
a secure tunnel. Assuming you have a linux server<br />somewhere at your disposal, just run:<br /><br />$ ssh user@host -D8000<br /><br />That will set up a dynamic (SOCKS) proxy on your localhost port 8000.<br />Then in your browser settings, just configure it to use localhost:8000<br />as a proxy.<br />_______________________________________________<br />TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota<br />tclug-list@mn-linux.org<br /><a href="http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list" target="webcit01">http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list</a><br /><br /><br />
