+BudMan MVC Posted January 13, 2012 MVC Share Posted January 13, 2012 Not really what he was asking I don't think -- that seems to a sever host. I think he was asking more how to do it on his own what I would assume is local, or a server he already has somewhere. Depends on what your trying to do exactly -- no brainer way for a simple tunnel is pretty much any box that you can connect to with ssh, you can tunnel traffic through with something as simple as putty. So for example - here is simple socks proxy type setup to tunnel my internet traffic through ubuntu box I have at home running sshd. If you wanted to tunnel specific port to specific IP on the network end of the sshd server So in the first example -- if I point my browser to 127.0.0.1:3000 as socks proxy all my internet traffic goes through the tunnel and comes out the end where my sshd server is. Second example - if connect to 127.0.0.1 where putty is running on port 666 it goes through the tunnel to 192.168.1.100 port 3389 (remote desktop) Whats great about this is you can tunnel any port you want, or all the traffic for an application that is socks proxy aware. Not need for admin on the box, just run putty and connect to your ssh server. Now there are plenty of other ways - could create just a stunnel with stunnel ;) Or ipsec based site to site or road warrior type thing. Comes down to the details of what your wanting to tunnel and what tools you have at your disposal or from the details of what your wanting to there are always multiple ways to skin a cat ;) If you give me some more details happy to help you figure out best way to skin that cat..

+BudMan MVC Posted January 14, 2012 MVC Share Posted January 14, 2012 You don't have to do anything on the server end of the sshd, default it would allow this - sure it can be disabled. But yeah for minecraft you would just use the socks proxy setup. Any linux distro would have ssh server out of the box, windows you would have to install it.
