Hi, I use putty in my windows xp machine. ssh server in a centos 4. The centos 4 machine runs a web server that listens on port 1812, the centos machine is behind a firewall that allows tcp 22 connections only. I am on public internet.
Can I forward/redirect/allow my web browser in windows to "see" the web page in port 1812 of the centos machine via the SSH connection?
Use use ssh -D to create a tunneled socks proxy.
set up a dynamic proxy in putty on port 3333 (can be anything over 1024 really ) then instruct your browser to use a socks proxy on localhost 3333. Most browsers try to prevent tunneling localhost traffic for websites, so you'll have to make sure that's not enabled. then point your browser to locahost:1812 and it'll work just fine.
Thanks,
