SSH Socks Proxy Tunnel Tutorial: How to Browse anonymously over the net

There are several ways to hide your real ip address while you browse the net, maybe in some reasons , you might want to be anonymous , undetected , or faking your ip address ? well then,just read on!

In this tutorial, you will need :

- SSH Account on any ip public. (you could search it on any Unix Shell Providers on the net).

- SSH Client , in this case , i’ll be using Putty.exe

Steps:

1. open your Putty , on the SSH options , click Tunnels , fill ‘1080‘ to source port. (you can use any port you want) And choose ‘Dynamic‘ option, and then click ‘Add‘. That’s all you have to configure. screenshot :

2. Now back to ‘Session‘ option , fill your host and port , and click Connect. Once you ‘re connected , means you’ve bind your localhot’s port 1080 for connection from the SSH Server. Screenshot :

3. The final step is to open your favorite browser , (my fave is mozilla firefox!) , click tools -> options -> Connection Settings -> Manual Proxy Configuration -> , choose ‘Socks Host‘ option , fill it with your local box ip (means 127.0.0.1) and the port will be 1080. Click OK. Screenshot :

4. Now browse to www.cmyip.com , and see whether you’re already invisible or not. That’s all.
