I needed the SSH server (on the “internet”) to be able to access a SOCKS Proxy running on the SSH Client. Make sure 'SOCKS v5' is selected and select the 'OK' button to save. , TCP port 1080, I could use the command below, assuming that I have a jdoe account on the SSH server at example.
However, when I try to configure my iPhone and iPad with iOS, I find iOS does not support socks proxy in its settings interface. A socks proxy will forward all the ports and can forward the DNS-lookups.
SSH to MyLinode doesn't work (and no SFTP ofcourse). What that command does is -D 1337: open a SOCKS proxy on local port :1337. Ssh through socks proxy Using a command line parameter when launching Chrome will use the socks proxy and also tunnel DNS requests from the browser over.
