I guess I could have called that an SSH server. You just an box to SSH into. Just SSH into the box and make sure that box can make external calls to external sources (you can test this with `wget http://www.google.com`). Normal communications send web requests directly from your client onto the web. Using the above method, web requests go from your client to the SSH server (the thing you had a question about) to the web. Think of it like trying to leave a house with it’s windows and doors sealed; if you can dig a tunnel from your house to your neighbors house, you can exit via their front door.

I.E. In order for this to work, you need an SSH client (your house) like PuTTY, an SSH server (neighbor’s house) like OpenSSH, and the ability to establish an SSH connection between them (dig the tunnel).

As far as it not working, I have some questions…
– Can you SSH into the box?
– Once SSH’d in, can you reach the web? (use wget)
– What program are you trying to proxy?

Your network may block SSH requests; if that is the case they you are hosed.

Let me know!
