Proxy via Telnet
- by Vreality2007
I know telnet is insecure and all, but I'm stuck using it because ssh is blocked.
I know how to setup ssh to bind the connection to a local port, is there a way to do this with telnet?
For example, if I am using an ssh connection, I would bind it to port 999 like this:
ssh -D 999 [email protected] -N -C
I've tried using the -b command in linux, but to no avail. Is this even possible?
This is what I've tried:
telnet host.com -b 999
I'm sorry if the answer is obvious, but I've done a lot of research and testing and I can't seem to figure this out.
NOTE: I plan on telling the admin if I can find a way to get this to work, this is based off of simple curiosity and not malicious intent.
If I can't bind a telnet port, is there a way to tunnel an ssh connection through telnet?
