socksify configuration
I use SSH to connect to the network at my work when I work from home.
I'm thinking that socksify (dante-client) will handle my proxy needs,
but I'm having trouble configuring it.
I currently set the socks proxy in Mozilla to localhost:1080 and all my
email and surfing goes through the socks proxy on the corporate network.
However, not only can this be slow for some things (it is the corporate
network, after all) performance on some sites (e.g. eBay) is very slow
through the corporate net. Maybe they're selectively degrading access to
certain sites to politely discourage use?
My needs are:
- all requests going to a certain domain (e.g. mycompany.org) should go
through the proxy (localhost:1080)
- all other requests should be direct
After reading the man page and the sample config files, I tried this:
route {
from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: .mycompany.org via: 127.0.0.1 port = 1080
protocol: tcp udp # server supports tcp and udp.
proxyprotocol: socks_v4 socks_v5 # server supports socks v4 and v5.
method: none #username # we are willing to
authenticate via
# method "none", not "username".
}
But this doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong?
