Question
Tunnel web traffic through SOCKS proxy
I am behind a firewall on my local network. It is very restrictive and allows connections only through a few ports. Even direct ssh connections are blocked. I get around this is by editing the sshconfig file and adding the following lines:
Host mydigitaloceanip
ProxyCommand proxytunnel -p 172.31.1.4:8080 -d mydigitalocean_ip:443
ServerAliveInterval 60
GSSAPIAuthentication no
Here 172.31.1.4:8080 is the local proxy that we have to connect to access the web. Now what I want to achieve is to tunnel all my web traffic through a socks proxy or any other solution that allows me to browse blocked websites. Please help.
