Ability to create forward proxy for creating SOCKS proxy #496

Closed r0b0ji closed 7 months ago

r0b0ji commented 7 months ago

I saw that with mutagen I can create a forward session to my remote machine. However, I couldn't create a forward proxy. Basically what I'm looking for is equivalent of

ssh -D local_port remote_machine

Hi @r0b0ji, we don't currently support the SOCKS proxy protocol in Mutagen. You might be able to find a SOCKS proxy that can operate over Mutagen's forwarding, but the best option for now would probably be to use OpenSSH's SOCKS support.
