Transparent proxy server that works as a poor man's VPN. Forwards over
ssh. Doesn't require admin. Works with Linux and MacOS. Supports DNS
tunneling.
From readme file:[[BR]]
As far as I know, sshuttle is the only program that solves the following
common case:[[BR]]
Your client machine (or router) is Linux, FreeBSD, or MacOS.[[BR]]
You have access to a remote network via ssh.[[BR]]
You don't necessarily have admin access on the remote network.[[BR]]
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.[[BR]]
You don't want to create an ssh port forward for every single host/port on
the remote network.[[BR]]
You hate openssh's port forwarding because it's randomly slow and/or
stupid.[[BR]]
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).
