It works like a VPN, acts like a VPN, feels like a VPN; but it kinda isn’t a VPN.
Would you like to access your local network ?
Are you too lazy to set up a real VPN server like me ? Do you like security ? Well, now you can use a virtual private network through ssh and route all requests from one machine to another, using sshuttle.
commands:
sshuttle -x server.org -r user@server.org 0.0.0.0/0 --dns
sshuttle -x server.org -r user@server.org addresses/subnet --dns
WHERE:
server.org is your (ssh-enabled) server’s domain name.
-x server.org means, exclude the server.org domain from being routed
through your server (server.org), the wiki says some problems occur on some
linux machines - it will recursively resolve to itself and the ssh session
will crash.
use 0.0.0.0 on SUBNET to route ALL requests through ssh server.
use 24 for subnet and use 192.168.1.0 on addresses to route requests starting with 192.168.1. through the ssh server.
e.g. sshuttle --dns -x server.org -r user@server.org 192.168.1.0/24
