Strict requirement: a remote linux server with an openssh-server active daemon.
Let’s open PuTTY and start:
- Insert your server fqdn/ip
- Go to Connection Tab -> SSH -> Tunnels
- Into Destination field, choose Dynamic
- Choose a TCP port number that is free to use locally on your windows computer (usually any number above 1024 is ok, let’s assume 1339) and insert it into Source field
- Click Add
- Click Open button, connect to your server via ssh with username and password and leave the session open and active
Now the tunnel is set up to localhost on the tcp port 1339 that you specified as source port.
Now you could setup you progrma to use a SOCKS5 proxy to use the tunnel.
