Description-en: Help SSH and other protocols through HTTP(S) proxies
Proxytunnel creates tunnels through HTTP(S) proxies for any TCP based
protocol. It comes in handy when one sits behind a firewall that allows for
HTTP(S) traffic only.
.
The program connects stdin and stdout to an origin server somewhere in the
Internet through an industry standard HTTP or HTTPS proxy. It was originally
written as an extension to SSH, to be used to SSH to a box at home.
.
It's possible to use proxytunnel along with other applications as well,
by running it from inetd or as daemon listing on a local port to be
forwarded through the tunnel.
