<h1>SSH Proxy Command&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;connect.c</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="preamble">
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p><tt>connect.c</tt> is a simple relaying command to make network connection
via SOCKS and https proxy. It is mainly intended to be used as proxy
command of OpenSSH. You can make SSH session beyond the firewall with
this command,</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Features of <tt>connect.c</tt> are:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
Supports SOCKS (version 4/4a/5) and https CONNECT method.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Supports NO-AUTH and USERPASS authentication of SOCKS5
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
You can input password from tty, <tt>ssh-askpass</tt> or environment variable.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Run on UNIX or Windows platform.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
You can compile with various C compiler (cc, gcc, Visual C, Borland C. etc.)
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Simple and general program independent from OpenSSH.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
You can also relay local socket stream instead of standard I/O.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>You can download source code
(<a href="http://bitbucket.org/gotoh/connect/raw/tip/connect.c">connect.c</a>)
on the <a href="http://bitbucket.org/gotoh/connect/">project page</a>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Pre-compiled binary for MS Windows is also available on
<a href="http://bitbucket.org/gotoh/connect/downloads/">download page</a>.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
<h2 id="_what_is_proxy_command">What is proxy command?</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>OpenSSH development team decides to stop supporting SOCKS and any
other tunneling mechanism. It was aimed to separate complexity to
support various mechanism of proxying from core code. And they
recommends more flexible mechanism: ProxyCommand option instead.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Proxy command mechanism is delegation of network stream
communication. If ProxyCommand options is specified, SSH invoke
specified external command and talk with standard I/O of thid
command. Invoked command undertakes network communication with
relaying to/from standard input/output including iniitial
communication or negotiation for proxying. Thus, ssh can split out
proxying code into external command.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The <tt>connect.c</tt> program was made for this purpose.</p></div>

I do not want to make this program complex, I do not want to support
although this feature is already requested. Please advice me if there
is good idea of detecting environment to swich and simple way to
specify conditioned directive of servers.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>One tricky workaround exists. It is replacing <tt>~/.ssh/config</tt> file by
script on ppp up/down.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>There&#8217;s another example of wrapper script (contributed by Darren
Tucker). This script costs executing ifconfig and grep to detect
current environment, but it works. Note that you should modify
addresses if you use it.</p></div>

<div class="sectionbody">
<h3 id="_proxying_socket_connection">Proxying socket connection</h3><div style="clear:left"></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>In usual, <tt>connect.c</tt> relays network connection to/from standard
input/output. By specifying -p option, however, <tt>connect.c</tt> relays local
network stream instead of standard input/output. With this option,
connect command waits connection from other program, then start
relaying between both network stream.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This feature may be useful for the program which is hard to SOCKSify.</p></div>
<h3 id="_use_with_ssh_askpass_command">Use with ssh-askpass command</h3><div style="clear:left"></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><tt>connect.c</tt> ask you password when authentication is required. If you
are using on tty/pty terminal, connect can input from terminal with
prompt. But you can also use ssh-askpass program to input password. If
you are graphical environment like X Window or MS Windows, and program
does not have tty/pty, and environment variable <tt>SSH_ASKPASS</tt> is
specified, then <tt>connect.c</tt> invoke command specified by environment
variable SSH_ASKPASS to input password. ssh-askpass program might be
installed if you are using OpenSSH on UNIX environment. On Windows
environment, pre-compiled binary is available from here.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This feature is limited on window system environment.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>And also useful on Emacs on MS Windows (NT Emacs or Meadow). It is
hard to send passphrase to connect command (and also ssh) because
external command is invoked on hidden terminal and do I/O with this
terminal. Using ssh-askpass avoids this problem.</p></div>
<h3 id="_use_for_network_stream_of_emacs">Use for Network Stream of Emacs</h3><div style="clear:left"></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Although <tt>connect.c</tt> is made for OpenSSH, it is generic and independent
from OpenSSH. So we can use this for other purpose. For example, you
can use this command in Emacs to open network connection with remote
host over the firewall via SOCKS or HTTP proxy without SOCKSifying
Emacs itself.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>There is sample code:
<a href="http://bitbucket.org/gotoh/connect/src/tip/relay.el">http://bitbucket.org/gotoh/connect/src/tip/relay.el</a></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>With this code, you can use <tt>relay-open-network-stream</tt> function instead
of <tt>open-network-stream</tt> to make network connection. See top comments of
the source for more detail.</p></div>
<h3 id="_remote_resolver">Remote resolver</h3><div style="clear:left"></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you are SOCKS4 user on UNIX environment, you might want specify
nameserver to resolve remote hostname. You can do it specifying <tt>-R</tt>
option followed by IP address of resolver.</p></div>
<h3 id="_hopping_connection_via_ssh">Hopping Connection via SSH</h3><div style="clear:left"></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Conbination of ssh and connect command have more interesting
usage. Following command makes indirect connection to host2:port from
your current host via host1.</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><tt>$ ssh host1 connect host2 port</tt></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This method is useful for the situations like:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
You are outside of organizasion now, but you want to access an
internal host barriered by firewall.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
You want to use some service which is allowed only from some limited hosts.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example, I want to use local NetNews service in my office from
home. I cannot make NNTP session directly because NNTP host is
barriered by firewall. Fortunately, I have ssh account on internal
host and allowed using SOCKS5 on firewall from outside. So I use
following command to connect to NNTP service.</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">

</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>As an advanced example, you can use SSH hopping as fetchmail&#8217;s plug-in
program to access via secure tunnel. This method requires that connect
program is insatalled on remote host. There&#8217;s example of .fetchmailrc
bellow. When fetchmail access to mail-server, you will login to remote
host using SSH then execute connect program on remote host to relay
conversation with pop server. Thus fetchmail can retrieve mails in
secure.</p></div>

<h2 id="_break_the_more_restricted_wall">Break The More Restricted Wall</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>If firewall does not provide SOCKS nor HTTPS other than port 443, you
cannot break the wall in usual way. But if you have you own host which
is accessible from internet, you can make ssh connection to your own
host by configuring sshd as waiting at port 443 instead of standard
22. By this, you can login to your own host via port 443. Once you
have logged-in to extenal home machine, you can execute connect as
second hop to make connection from your own host to final target host,
like this:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><tt>internal$ cat ~/.ssh/config
Host home
ProxyCommand connect -H firewall:8080 %h 443
Host server # internal
ProxyCommand ssh home connect %h %p
internal$ ssh home
You are logged in to home!
home# exit
internal$ ssh server
You are logged in to server!
server# exit
internal$</tt></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This way is similar to "Hopping connection via SSH" except configuring
outer sshd as waiting at port 443 (https). This means that you have a
capability to break the strongly restricted wall if you have own host
out side of the wall.</p></div>

<div class="paragraph"><p>SOCKS version 4 is first popular implementation which is documented

<div class="paragraph"><p>SOCKS version 5 is re-designed protocol stands on experience of
