sshuttle: where transparent proxy meets VPN meets ssh
=====================================================

As far as I know, sshuttle is the only program that solves the following
common case:

- Your client machine (or router) is Linux, FreeBSD, or MacOS.

- You have access to a remote network via ssh.

- You don't necessarily have admin access on the remote network.

- The remote network has no VPN, or only stupid/complex VPN
protocols (IPsec, PPTP, etc). Or maybe you *are* the
admin and you just got frustrated with the awful state of
VPN tools.

- You don't want to create an ssh port forward for every
single host/port on the remote network.

- You hate openssh's port forwarding because it's randomly
slow and/or stupid.

- You can't use openssh's PermitTunnel feature because
it's disabled by default on openssh servers; plus it does
TCP-over-TCP, which has terrible performance (see below).

Obtaining sshuttle
------------------

- From PyPI::

pip install sshuttle

- Clone::

git clone https://github.com/sshuttle/sshuttle.git
