if all you'd like to secure is WWW then these other tunneling protocols may be a bit of an overkill. you can simply set up a squid or other sort of www proxy on your home machine and set up a ssh tunnel to that proxy from your work machine. then simply set the local end of your tunnel up as your http proxy in your browser and everything should just work. at home: "# apt-get install squid" at work: "% ssh -f -L 12346:localhost:12345 123.45.67.89 sleep 99999" where: 12346 is the port on your machine at work where you point your browsers http proxy 12345 is the port that your squid server is running on at home 123.45.67.89 is the ip address/hostname of your machine at home alternatley, ssh home and type "links". - -- Fred Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://dividedsky.net/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+T03aJI0SdYXUydYRAjcNAJ0Yh7IIRrcUB7eoAWlLP5bt3cAXWACffPeP 2PKtD0CY/JAbfVzoGGv4dV0= =mDDB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
