Dynamic Port Forwarding

For Mac and Linux users, establish a ssh session to ubuntu.cs.mcgill.ca using your McGill first.last@mail.mcgill.ca credentials:

• Eg: ssh -D 9000 first.last@ubuntu.cs.mcgill.ca

For windows users, review the following link:

• How to Use SSH Port Forwarding {Ultimate Guide}

In Firefox (easiest as it can have its own proxy settings):

• Settings -> Network Settings

• Configure Proxy Access

• Manual

• SOCKS Host: localhost port 9000 (or whatever port one choses)

• SOCKv5

• Ok

See image below replacing XXXX with the port of your choice above:

*** Be sure to enable Proxy DNS when using SOCKS v5
