README
This is a program to make generating SSH tunnels easier. It allows
you to configure many tunnels using a .tunnelrc configuration file.
It also makes use of autossh to keep the tunnels alive.
Installation
------------
Copy tunnel into your PATH.
Write a .tunnelrc file in your home directory. Here's an example.
Tunnels:
Default:
th: example.com # the host to tunnel with
autossh: autossh # path to autossh, if you have it
autossh_port: 30000 # port to use for autossh
autossh_poll: 300 # how many seconds between trying to
# reconnect
# An example of using SSH as a SOCKS proxy
# on localhost:1080. IM, IRC, web browsers... lots of things
# can talk through a SOCKS proxy
socks:
dynamic: 1 # tell SSH to run as a SOCKS proxy
lp: 1080 # local port to run on
# Tunnel your outgoing mail connection to Gmail
# handy for networks which block outgoing mail
outgoing_gmail:
lp: 587
rh: smtp.gmail.com
# Tunnel to an SVN server
svn:
lp: 3690
rh: svn.example.com
