Or you could simply use 'Socks5 via SSH' which I'll ▐▌ █ explain below. This tut is mainly how to use one - client side. ▐▌ █ For example you have purchased a proxy/socks5, or a friend gave you one ▐▌ █ to use and you don't know how to use it. In most types this should work. ▐▌ █ For example you are given a HTTP Proxy or Socks5: ▐▌ █ Server: 74.125.45.100 ▐▌ █ Port: 2121 ▐▌ █ Username: mewbie ▐▌ █ Password: MyPassword ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ ENTER PROXY DIRECTLY INTO A PROGRAM: ▐▌ █ ```````````````````````````````````` ▐▌ █ HTTP Proxy: ▐▌ █ It could be as simple as entering that information directly into your ▐▌ █ program. For instance: ▐▌ █ In IE: Tools/Internet Options/Connections/Lan settings/check 'use a proxy ▐▌ █ server for lan..../Advanced enter under HTTP 74.125.45.100 Port: 2121 ▐▌ █ If it's a Socks enter under Socks ▐▌ █ First time you go to a web page you'll be prompted once for the above ▐▌ █ Username and Password. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ In FireFox: Tools/Options/Advanced/Network/Settings/ Select 'Manual proxy ▐▌ █ configuration'. Enter your Proxy IP and port under HTTP Host. OK/OK. ▐▌ █ If it's a Socks enter under SOCKS Host. ▐▌ █ First time you go to a web page you'll be prompted once for the above ▐▌ █ Username and Password. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ Socks5 Proxy: ▐▌ █ In FTPRush: Tools/Options/Connection/Proxy Server/Add/ Enter your ▐▌ █ settings/ select Proxy Type Socks5 (or whatever type you are using). ▐▌ █ Then check 'Use passive mode when using proxy' ▐▌ █ Then drop down menu Current Proxy settings select it /Apply/OK ▐▌ █ Or to use it for only a certain site: ▐▌ █ Tools/Site Manager/Select your site/Connection/ Proxy Server/ ▐▌ █ Select 'Use custom proxy server'. Drop down menu select your new proxy. ▐▌ █ Select 'Apply proxy on Data channel ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ Socks5 Proxy for Telnet: ▐▌ █ Vandyke's SecureCRT: Options/Global Options/Terminal/Firewall/Add/ ▐▌ █ Fill in the information: ▐▌ █ Name anything you like ▐▌ █ Type: Socks version5 (username/password) ▐▌ █ Host name: IP of proxy ▐▌ █ Port: Port of proxy ▐▌ █ username & password: the one set on the proxy ▐▌ █ Click OK/OK ▐▌ █ Then go to your server list/right click on the server you want to use the ▐▌ █ proxy on/ Properties/Connection/Telnet/Firewall: drop down list/ Select ▐▌ █ your Proxy you just added. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ SOCKS5 VIA SSH: ▐▌ █ ``````````````` ▐▌ █ If you are the host you don't need to set up anything! :) Follow the ▐▌ █ same method below to use your box as a Socks5 server; your Host would be ▐▌ █ your IP, port would be what you have SSH setup on. If you want to share ▐▌ █ this with other users just make an account for them: adduser. Once you ▐▌ █ are connected, you'll be prompted for your normal username and password. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ SOCKS5 PORT FORWARDING: ▐▌ █ ``````````````````````` ▐▌ █ Socks can also be setup like this: ▐▌ █ Download PuTTy from HERE (freeware, tiny, portable). ▐▌ █ You can get a free little tool to check if your ports are open / forwarded ▐▌ █ correctly 'PFPortChecker' by portforward.com HERE (not required). ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ SETTINGS: ▐▌ █ In Putty: Open Putty, enter into 'Host Name (or IP address)' your host / ▐▌ █ proxy's IP (74.125.45.100), 'Port' enter port from host (your host might ▐▌ █ give you a range to choose from like: 21,22,23,80,443). ▐▌ █ Connection type: select 'SSH'. Saved Sessions enter any name you like. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ Left pane - Connection/SSH select 'Don't start a shell or command at all' ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ Connection/SSH/Tunnels select 'Dynamic' then in 'Source port' enter your ▐▌ █ source port, for ex: 8282 ('Source port' is the port it will listen on ▐▌ █ from your box, so pick any port that is open). Then click Add. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ Session/ Click the 'Save' button. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ If you want to use VanDyke's SecureCRT, it's really too heavy of an app to ▐▌ █ use for this tiny job, here are the settings: ▐▌ █ Connect button/ New Session button (3rd from left) / Protocol select SSH2/ ▐▌ █ Fill in information for Server/ Name anything/ Finish. Then right click on ▐▌ █ your new session under Session, select Properties/Connections/Port ▐▌ █ Forwarding/ Select 'Do not request a shell'. Click Add button, enter your ▐▌ █ source/listening port under 'Remote': 8282, select 'Dynamic forwarding ▐▌ █ using SOCKS4 or 5', click OK. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ CONNECT TO PROXY: ▐▌ █ Double click on your new Saved Sessions to connect. ▐▌ █ Click Yes to accept. Type in your username, hit enter key and then type in ▐▌ █ your password (you can't see it). If all went well nothing else will ▐▌ █ happen in the putty window. ▐▌ █ You must leave this running to access tunnel and use the proxy for ▐▌ █ software like mIRC, IE, FTP, etc. - just minimize it. If the connection to ▐▌ █ the server is lost close that window, open putty again, and reconnect as ▐▌ █ above. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ TO USE PROXY IN APPLICATIONS: ▐▌ █ MIRC: Tools/Options/Connect/Firewall/Firewall support: Both / ▐▌ █ Protocol: Socks5 /Hostname: 127.0.0.1 (or: localhost)/ Port: 8282 (Your ▐▌ █ 'Source port') ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ FIREFOX: Tools/Options/Advanced/Network/Settings/check "Manual proxy ▐▌ █ configuration' enter under SOCKS Host: 127.0.0.1 Port: 8282 ▐▌ █ check Socks 5, then click OK, OK. ▐▌ █ Not needed but for a little extra security, type into browser: ▐▌ █ about:config ▐▌ █ scroll down to or enter into filter window to find it: ▐▌ █ network.proxy.socks_remote_dns ▐▌ █ Double click it to set it to true. Then all DNS requests happen at the ▐▌ █ SSH side leaving your ISP in the dark as to what you're doing on the net. ▐▌ █ Thank you to st*n*x for that extra tip :) ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ IE: Tools/Internet Options/Connections/Lan settings/check 'use a proxy ▐▌ █ server for lan..../Advanced enter under Socks 127.0.0.1 Port: 8282 ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ Can test your browser HERE at whatismyipaddress.com ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ E-MAIL: ▐▌ █ Using gxx.net for example: ▐▌ █ The gxx pop server is pop.gxx.net:110 and the smtp is mail.gxx.net:465 ▐▌ █ Pick 2 open ports and point your e-mail client to those. ▐▌ █ Example: POP 127.0.0.1:8383 and SMTP 127.0.0.1:8484 ▐▌ █ Then you configure your SSH client to do port forwarding as follows: ▐▌ █ map 127.0.0.1:8383 to pop.gxx.net:110 ▐▌ █ map 127.0.0.1:8484 to mail.gxx.net:465 ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ USED AS A HTTP TUNNEL: ▐▌ █ `````````````````````` ▐▌ █ This will require that your host has setup 'httptunnel' for you or it ▐▌ █ won't work as below. ▐▌ █ For this example I'm going to use HTC (HTTPtunnel client) HTC's site is ▐▌ █ HERE. Huge Thank You to xzibition.com HERE for setting it up for testing :)▐▌ █ Btw if you're in need of a good shell host, they are it. ▐▌ █ Author's blog How to HERE, FAQ, and a How To. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ HTC SETTINGS: ▐▌ █ 1. Check their site for the latest version if your host didn't give you. ▐▌ █ Download httptunnel-3.3w32r2.zip HERE. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 2. Unzip that to: C:\htc ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 3. Find an open port that you know you can use 'source port/listening ▐▌ █ port', or forward one in your router. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 4. Open a Window's Prompt: Start/Run/ type in: cmd ▐▌ █ then select OK ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 5. Type into the window then hit your enter key: ▐▌ █ C:\htc\htc.exe HostIP:HostPort -F another.source.port ▐▌ █ For example: C:\htc\htc.exe 74.125.45.100:80 -F 8383 ▐▌ █ If you have to connect to a corporate proxy first before being allowed out ▐▌ █ then do this for example: ▐▌ █ C:\htc\htc.exe -P HttpProxy:3128 74.125.45.100:80 -F 8383 ▐▌ █ If your proxy requires authentication then for example: ▐▌ █ C:\htc\htc.exe -P HttpProxy:3128 -A USER:PASSWORD 74.125.45.100:80 -F 8383 ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 6. Leave that window open, just minimize it. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ PUTTY SETTINGS FOR USE WITH HTC: ▐▌ █ 1. Do the same settings as above for Putty 'except' for "Session/ enter ▐▌ █ proxy's IP into the hostname & port" you'll enter: ▐▌ █ 127.0.0.1 (or: localhost) port 8383 (your other source port). ▐▌ █ 2. Connect to your proxy, leave window open, just minimize it. (So now you ▐▌ █ will have HTC and PuTTy running) ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ TO USE PROXY IN APPLICATIONS: ▐▌ █ Follow the same directions as above under 'TO USE PROXY IN APPLICATIONS'. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ SUMMARY OF PORTS USED IN THE EXAMPLES ABOVE: ▐▌ █ ```````````````````````````````````````````` ▐▌ █ Your own source port in your applications (IE, mIRC, etc): 8282 ▐▌ █ Your own same source port (Dynamic) in PuTTy that will listen for your applications: 8282 █ Your own source port Putty will connect to HTC: 8383 ▐▌ █ Your own same source port HTC is listening on for PuTTy: 8383 ▐▌ █ Your Host/Server port that HTC will send off your connections: 80 ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ So your the connections will go something like this: ▐▌ █ Applications connect to your own box (localhost) on port 8282, PuTTy hears ▐▌ █ them (listening/source port 8282) and sends that connection off / forwards ▐▌ █ it to port 8383, HTC hears them and forwards it to the Server (finally out ▐▌ █ of your box) on Port 80, which all firewalls allow. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ HTC VARIABLES: ▐▌ █ -A, --proxy-authorization USER:PASSWORD proxy authorization ▐▌ █ -z, --proxy-authorization-file FILE proxy authorization file ▐▌ █ -B, --proxy-buffer-size BYTES assume a proxy buffer size of BYTES bytes ▐▌ █ (k, M, and G postfixes recognized) ▐▌ █ -c, --content-length BYTES use HTTP PUT requests of BYTES size ▐▌ █ (k, M, and G postfixes recognized) ▐▌ █ -d, --device DEVICE use DEVICE for input and output ▐▌ █ -F, --forward-port PORT use TCP port PORT for input and output ▐▌ █ -h, --help display this help and exit ▐▌ █ -k, --keep-alive SECONDS send keepalive bytes every SECONDS seconds ▐▌ █ (default is 5) ▐▌ █ -M, --max-connection-age SEC maximum time a connection will stay ▐▌ █ open is SEC seconds (default is 300) ▐▌ █ -P, --proxy HOSTNAME[:PORT] use a HTTP proxy (default port is 8080) ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ HTC NOTES: ▐▌ █ 1. Make sure all the ports that you select are open for you to use or this ▐▌ █ won't work. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 2. Only one IP / one person may use this at the same time per port. It's ▐▌ █ the software limitation, not your host. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 3. It will log to Window's application log. To view those logs: ▐▌ █ Start/Control Panel/ double click on 'Administrative Tools' / double click ▐▌ █ on 'Event Viewer' / double click on 'Application' / double click on an ▐▌ █ entry to view information about it. Easy way to find entries for HTC is to ▐▌ █ click the column's tab 'Source' which will then sort all alphabetically. ▐▌ █ It will be under htc. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 4. To close HTC completely you need to use the Task Manager: Ctrl+Alt+Del ▐▌ █ keys, Processes tab, find htc.exe, select it, hit the 'End Process' button.▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 5. If when you try to connect with putty and it immediately prompts you ▐▌ █ with: "Server unexpectedly closed network connection" and then probably ▐▌ █ kills the running hts.exe - most likely the cmd you are entering is ▐▌ █ incorrect and or your ports aren't open. Most cases this has nothing to do ▐▌ █ with your host. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ 6. In the enclosed README it suggests to read an article about firewall ▐▌ █ piercing; that document can now be found HERE. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ //---------------------------------------------------------------------- ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ If you find mistakes, have suggestions, and or questions please post at ▐▌ █ mewbies forum HERE - thank you. ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █ Last update on 18 Aug '09 ▐▌ █ ▐▌ █▌ █▌ █▌ - mewbies.com - █▌ █▌ █▌ ██▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄██
