How to use mssh behind a proxy? #15

Closed t0ny-peng closed 4 years ago

I need to connect to an AWS instance, but the Internet speed is very slow from my service provide. However, I can find a proxy which is fast from both my home and the AWS instance. Is there anyway to connect through the socks5 proxy?

Thanks

mssh will parse and then pass switches to underlying ssh client, so invoking mssh ec2-user@i-1234567890abcd -v will cause ssh client to print debugging messages.

That said, you could utilize standard ssh switches (e.g. -o ProxyCommand='xxx') to let mssh instruct ssh client connecting using SOCKS 5 proxies.
