Hello, I'm trying to use a remote obsd box as a socks proxy through ssh. Both local and remote are 5.1-release.
After reading man pages, I specified in local ssh_config: Tunnel yes and, also, in remote sshd_config: AllowTcpForwarding yes PermitTunnel yes So, I basically establish a session like this: # ssh -p <remote_sshd_port> -D 12345 user@mysshdserver and then, on local machine, I go with: # http_proxy="http://127.0.0.1:12345/"; lynx google.com Lynx makes HTTP connection to 127.0.0.1:12345 and then sends HTTP request; the comes "Alert! Unexpected network read error; connection aborted." Using my local machine as the sshd server does not change the effect. Also tried throwing in a linux box in the battlefield, but results are the same. Where is my mistake? Thanks for your advice!
