Dynamic SOCKS port forwarding #69

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Supporting dynamic port forwarding would be nice for programs that support
SOCKS proxying.

The way we have to implement it is to have a SOCKS server which has a TCP
port listener, the SOCKS server interprets the request, passes back a
hostname:port destination, and then requests the SSH connection open up a
port to the destination, and then we use that stream to connect the SOCKS
client to the desired destination.

I'm thinking we'll reuse some code from jsocks at
http://jsocks.sourceforge.net/
