hey!,

i am new to OSX...

i have a proxy server at home.. and i want to access it at school...

but i have no idea how to use ssh and tunnel to the proxy i set up at home...


any help? thanks
 
Open Terminal from the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. Then type in the command to connect to an SSH server:

ssh user@host -R Port:127.0.0.1:Port

user@host = your username at your domain or IP of the proxy server
Port = the port you're wanting to tunnel to (e.g. VNC would be 5900, etc.)
