http tunnel

(1/4) > >>

Lord C:
Does anyone have a clue about http tunneling?

Basically I'm at uni, on a shitty network.
It's high speed, but the proxy and firewall i'm behing sucks ass.
I get port 80, that's about it.

After trying many, many bittorrent programs, it seems BitComet works through my proxy :D

I'd like to use a http tunnel, so I can use programs like Napster again, I do miss it.

Jack2000:
Why don't you just tel the SysAdmin to shut down the firewall(/do something to it) or  go to hell ! :D

Lord C:
I've spoke to the sysadmins many times - they are incompetant.

I tried HTTP-Tunnel Client for Windows before, but to no success, but I found this tutorial where the guy uses Socks Cap with HTTP-Tunnel, and this seems to work.

It's slow, and I can browse websites, but not Flash animations :/

So this doesn't really work lol.

If anyone has a box that I can proxy/tunnel through at a decent speed (to be able to use Flash/Shockwave animations) would be great.

I work for a company, moderating a 2D Chat Site, that is based on Shockwave.

You need to use p2p proggies that support SOCKS proxies.

Then you can create an ssh tunnel to let them out. (this clearly requires an account on a remote linux box)


# ssh -2 -D xyz -N [email protected]

Next, instruct your client to use SOCKS on localhost, port xyz. Azureus is good for this.

PS. Don't tunnel through illhostit.com servers, it isn't appreciated.

PPS. Finally! A *nix question.

KernelPanic:
Which uni you at?
