Networking :: Reverse SSH Tunnel Ubuntu And Windows 7?
Oct 3, 2010
I am currently running 64-bit Windows 7 from my home laptop and I would like to establish an SSH reverse tunnel to my laptop from my work Ubuntu 64-bit machine. I have been reading many "tutorials" that have led me nowhere and I feel as though I'm chasing my tail now. I have done the following on my Ubuntu machine:
Code:
ssh -R 19999:localhost:22 laptop_ip
and on my Windows machine, using putty, did the following:
Code:
Host Name: host_IP
[Code]...
I am able to access my Ubuntu machine when on my work network but there I have been unsuccessful when it comes to trying to remotely access it. I have tried everything that I can think of (though I am a novice). If there is any help/suggestions/ideas that could help, please let me know and don't hesitate to ask for more info!
p.s. I would also like to enable x-forwarding, but for now I would like to have remote access to the Ubuntu machine.
so i start it with ssh -f -R 4096:localhost:22 me@server.com and it comes up and someone can log in at the remote end. how do i close the tunnel from the initiating end ? netstat doesnt seem to identify my end of the tunnel , unless im looking for the wrong thing!
I run a cygwin installation on my windows 7 laptop. I run a rsync service, it works perfectly and is up and running. I start a reverse ssh tunnel: ssh -R 877:localhost:873 [URL] The tunnel works and is up and running. Then from my server I run the following command
Everything works except for �,�,�,�,�,� in the filenames. If I on the other hand runs rsync via ssh from my laptop to my server directly the swedisch characters works. Both the server and the laptop cygwin installation runs on sv_SE.ISO8859-1.
Now I know that the first is the tunnel end but how can I connect the two lines if I don't know the port number (ie: someone else estabilieshes another tunnel)
I am an heavy user of VNC, i use it to connect to my home computer from university and vice versa using a reverse ssh tunnel. Now, the screen at my university pc is using an higher resolution than the one of my laptop, so I can see only part of the screen. How can I address this? so that I can see full screen? Also, RDP works quicker than VNC, is there any setting I could use to speed up VNC?
I have my home network (connected to internet via VPN) and my "MS-based" work network (opened to internet via VPN). In windows I can easily create two VPN connections to enter my Work domain, but how can I do that in Linux? Network Manager allows only one VPN connection... The best way is to create pptp tunnel over configured in Network Manager ppp0. I've googled a lot but still didn't find any working example.
getting a reverse proxy to work. I have it working fine on my windows box with at32 Reverse Proxy. It was very easy to setup. Anyway I'm wanting to replace that windows box with a Linux box.Here is some background on what I'm trying to get done in Linux.
I have [url].....
All pointing with a CNAME to my dyndns.org address. I have a dynamic IP from my ISP so I need this and its currently working just fine.my ISP blocks port 80 so I have to use port 443. Port 443 seems to be the most reliable port to use since its one of the ports my ISP does not block and its one of the ports other places like hotels dont block.So I want to access my bittorrent server. I type in http:[url]....443 and the at32 Reverse Proxy points it to my internal server http://bittorrent on port 80.
I got this to work perfect in windows.So right now I'm doing this all in a virtual machine for testing. I have Apache all setup and working with the reverse proxy except for my thermostat's web server.Here is how I have it setup in the virtual machine.The machine is called testbox and its running Ubuntu Alt 10.04 32bit .In that VM I can go to http: // testbox but it will only display the HTML code of the page.If I go directly to the main page on the thermostat http://testbox/index.shtml the web page renders just fine and all the links work.My sites-available config file has this inside.
I've been working with my OpenVPN server for a while, and I have a rather interesting problem. I need to redirect all client traffic through the tunnel except for a couple IP's that need to be resolvable locally. The way I'm doing this is pushing these routes from the server:
Server 'PUSH' directives
push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp" push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8" push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.4.4"
I'm seeing that translating into these Windows routes:
Windows routes occurring
Wed Aug 31 15:14:35 2011 PUSH: Received control message: 'PUSH_REPLY,redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp,dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8,dhcp-option DNS 8.8.4.4,route 10.8.0.1,topology net30,ping 5,ping-restart 30,ifconfig 10.8.0.6 10.8.0.5' Wed Aug 31 15:14:35 2011 ROUTE default_gateway=192.168.1.254
I've hidden my server's IP beginning with 199 for security purposes.What I've gathered.I'm assuming that 0.0.0.0 is a kind of code for "everything," so I'm not sure how I could get this to work, but the general idea is that I need a specific IP range (172.16.*) to be resolvable on the LOCAL NETWORK (of the client) meaning it does not go through the VPN tunnel and the client can connect to 172.16.* locally.Is this possible? Routes can be executed through the command line, server "push" or client config options. Any way to get this to work while still routing other traffic through would do, really.
Additional Info: I have the server running on Debian 64-bit and the client running on Windows 7 (although Vista needs to work as well).Client/server configs can be provided if needed.
The full screen console is brought up by ctrl+alt+F1. How do you get back to the windows display manager? Is it necessary to reboot?I am running Ubuntu 9.10 with Gnome.
I Need to make an SSL tunnel over SSH, I need to create exactly an SSL tunnel,I have a situation like that, I heared it is possible,but don't know how to create an SSL tunnel over SSH i am having putty installed on my pc,So i think i can use putty for this purpose, But i don't know how to do this.
I wanted to create an ssh tunnel but I do not know what commands to run .. my environment is as follows: LAN Internet Office LAN Home PC <-> Linux firewall <-> http server..
According to the above what I figure is that I have an internal web server at my job and I need to create a tunnel to access the web server from my PC in my home. I know I can do a port forwarding with the firewall but I don't want to publish this web server to Internet. My home PC and both servers (firewall and web) are ubuntu. My idea is create a ssh tunnel that forward port 8080 on localhost in my home pc, to the firewall (obviously with public ip), and the the firewall forward to port 80 on office web server at my job. Note that the firewall accepts ssh connections to port 22, same for web server...
I want to be able to SSH into my computer that I can't expose port 22 on. I've tried the ssh -R ... several times, but can't manage to make it work.I have my home computer (want to SSH into), server (can SSH into), and some computer I want to SSH from.Do I need to install the sshd on the machine I want to SSH into? What are the commands I need to enter to forward from my server to my home computer?
Browsing via SSH Tunnel very slow When browsing in firefox at work via proxy through ssh on my 8.04 server the speed is near dial up. I have compression enabled, tried restarting ssh, and rebooting the server but it remains so sluggish. At home the connection is quick but the speed is lost in translation once I ssh in. I also tried adding "UseDNS no" to the ssh config but that did not help with the slow login or any other speed issues.
�nani@jebe-kevu-ovaj-PC:~$ ssh -ND 999 nani@nani.homelinux.com Privileged ports can only be forwarded by root. nani@jebe-kevu-ovaj-PC:~$ sudo ssh -ND 999 nani@nani.homelinux.com
[code]....
which password is he looking for exacly ? user nani is main user at ubuntu after he asked me for password i typed my nani user password and i got in , after how you can see he ask me for onather password i tried the nani�s password but nothing is heppening ?
when my laptop connects to internet. I have placed the script in /etc/network/if-up.d/.The scripts is being run when it should, but the SSH-tunnel isn't created.I can however run the script manually, as root, and then the tunnel is created.
I have a server running Ubuntu Server 10.04 that is a VirtualBox/Samba/SSH server. I have port forwarding set up for ports 22 and 3389 (SSH and RDP) and I want to access the Samba share without opening any other ports. I can connect to it from my internal network, but I want to be able to access it from school. My best guess would be to tunnel the Samba port through SSH, but I don't know how. I will be connecting to it from Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop.
In the office I use firefox for my work items and chrome for my personal items. I currently use proxy switchy with chrome to browse through an ssh tunnel to my home server. The chrome/switchy part works fine.In order to do this I have to open a command window every morning and execute:ssh -p8181 -D 9999 user@myhomeserver.comThen the command window asks my password and I am up and running. (my ssh server at home is running on port 8181)Is there a way to script this so I don't have to open the command window and enter my password every day (and also to prevent a visible command window from being open and visible)
I set up a routed OpenVPN server. Everything works fine. But I'd like to route the DNS queries thru the tunnel too. So I added:
[Code]....
Can't find server name for address 10.8.0.1: Non-existent domain Even thou I have a DNS server set up correctly (on the same server as the VPN) with recursion. I verified that by sending queries form external source, which worked fine. I suspect that the Bind server doesn't listen to the tun0-interface only eth0, but the Bind manual says it should listen to all interfaces by default. The server log shows:
Code: named[9639]: client 10.8.0.10#3807: RFC 1918 response from Internet for 1.0.8.10.in-addr.arpa
How do I get these DNS queries to resolve thru the tunnel?
I use two Ubuntu machines, one at home and one at work. In order to connect to the machine at work from home I need to connect through a "tunnel server" that controls all the traffic to the machines at work.I am able to connect with ssh to the tunnel server and from the tunnel server ssh my own machine at work. My question is how do I retrieve files form my work machine to the home machine. How do I sync folders between the machines using rsync when the "tunnel server" is in between?
I don't understand the concept of ssh port forwarding and tunneling.I was going to set up a remote desktop (vnc) connection to my grandmother's laptop that we'll give her soon so if something goes wrong i can fix it from here (she lives on the other side of the world). However, i've read using vnc plain over the internet isn't secure, and that i can secure it by running it through an ssh tunnel.That's what i've understood so far. However, from there on i get confused.
I'd have to run both an ssh server AND a vnc server on her laptop? So what i'd have to do is ssh into her computer, and then while logged on on her computer, somehow open a vnc connection back from the remote server to the local computer? Then i'd go back to my local computer and open a port where the vnc connection is waiting? From the concept, it would seem like i should be able to tunnel all the regular network traffic from the local computer to the remote one through ssh?
I'm trying to set up a secure web tunnel at home I have an Ubuntu box (desktop), a Mac, and a Windows 7 box. I use all of them for different reasons. I want to be able to route traffic from my browser through my Ubuntu box. I have done this before with proxy servers abroad, but I want to do it using ssh and my box at home so I don't have to pay for a service i.e (Secure Tunnel)etc.
I followed the instructions at http://bit.ly/hAnp6u. However, using my Win7 box, after I set the browser part per the instructions, I get no connection from the browser.
Is it possible to chain together multiple SSH tunnel hops in a single `ssh -L` command on the client side? I have two gateways I need to get through in order to access a remote host. For a normal SSH client connection, it's simple enough chain this all together by simply appending the additional SSH connection commands to the first one:Code: ssh gateway.1 ssh gateway.2 ssh remote.host.
I have a domain and the settings for it are pointed at my IP address. But when I look up my IP address, it does not show my domain as the hostname. What settings do I have to change to make my IP translate into my domain as the hostname?
I run Ubuntu 9.10 locally connecting to CentOS5 on a remote server.When I run the following command in the Terminal;ssh -v -L 10005:localhost:10000 root@remote_ip_address -F ~/.ssh_config -i ~/.ssh/private_key_file_nameafter 'Authentication succeeded (publickey)' I get the following for channel 1;sys_tun_open: failed to open tunnel control interface:Permission deniedhowever, it does open an interactive client-session on channel 2 and my browser will then connect (via URL localhost:10005) to Webmin on the remote server which is the object of the exercise.However, because sys_tun_open failed, I am concerned that the transactions may not be encrypted as I understand they would be in proper tunnelling
I'm trying to create EoIP interface on ubuntu so i can create a simple tunnel to my mikrotik router. Is there anyone know how or even done that? If EoIP is not possible, is there any other simple way?
I had already read and thought about doing it with OpenVPN, but when I read the community documentation for OpenVPN on ubuntu 10.10, I fear it won't connect the tunnel to mikrotik OpenVPN server, since OpenVPN on ubuntu uses 2 certificate and 2 key files(as i read on the docs), but mikrotik configuration, i can see only 1 certificate can be applied on. This confuses me and make me decide to use EoIP(but i can't find any tutorial/docs about it). I don't actually need the encryption and security, i just need to create a tunnel for ubuntu and mikrotik.
My friend has a server with 2 ips, 1 primary and 1 secondary/failover. He has given me a shell account and I want to use ssh to route my home http traffic through it like a socks proxy. I connect to his server using the secondary ip like this:
ssh me@secondary_ip -p port -D forwarding_port
It builds a proxy, however it uses the primary ip of the server, not the secondary ip that I logged in with. When using irssi I've bound it to the secondary ip with no problem. If I try to use the -b flag I get the error: cannot bind: Cannot assign requested address.
how I can bind the ssh tunnel to the secondary ip?
I am using 10.04 ubuntu and I have forgotten my password to login to a ssh tunnel. It is not the root password on my computer. Is there any way I can find the password out, change it, or just start over and create a new one? I know it isn't a connection problem because I can't login to ssh from localhost either. I've tried reinstalling ssh too.
