reverse-proxy web access on a server where only SSH is allowed
- by Kaii
Every once in a while i have to connect to a server where access is highly restricted. Only inbound SSH is allowed by the DMZ firewall - outbound HTTP connections are blocked.
I'm looking for a good way to tunnel web access through my SSH session, so i can install updates and software via yum / apt-get.
What do you do in such a situation?
SSH has the -D <port> SOCKS proxy option. But unfortunately it is one-way only from client to server and there is no reverse option.
