Now you get a window as shown below, and fill the settings as shown below. Next we have to configure the Browser to use this proxy.Ĭlick on Advanced > Network Tab > Settings. Next time you run putty, you just have to double click the saved name from the list of Saved Sessions. Now a Window should open, and you have to login with your username and password.
After doing these Click the Add Button.Next click on Tunnel Button, and Fill up the source port as 9090 (Can be any port > 1024, Just remember this number, I used 9090) and Click on the Dynamic Option Below, These are highlighted below: Watch out for Compression and SSH Version. Next on the left hand side tree, Click on SSH and make sure it appears as in the screen shot below. Still there will always be some free servers, Good for us :). You can get some free SSH servers out there on the internet, try searching for "Free SSH Servers", I am not posting any servers in particular because, I dont see any servers out there that will be there forever. In the Hostname (or IP Address) textbox, provide the IP or Domain of the SSH server. Next run "Putty.exe", You can see a screen as shown below:
#FIREFOX SSH TUNNEL PUTTY SOFTWARE#
Putty is a free software you can download for free. Setting up an SSH Tunnel on Linux is obvious and I will describe it anyway, but lets see how it is done on Windows first. This method is used for anonymous browsing as well as for accessing Blocked sites within the local network, such as Orkut, Facebook, YouTube or any other website, you name it :). Using this method we can set up Socks (V5) Proxies to access websites.
SSH Tunneling is the method by which, requests from our local system is encapsulated in an SSH session and forwarded to a remote computer, which then sends the requests as if they originated from the remote computer.
