Hello hcoopers,<br><br>For months (maybe years?) now I've been using putty to SSH tunnel to mire from my office to bypass the stupid content blocker they have. Its always worked great but suddenly about 3 weeks ago it won't connect at all, giving me "Network error: Software caused connection to abort." whenever I try to connect. I can still putty to mire from my home computer, and I can still putty to other servers from my work computer, so I am guessing that my office has blocked my connection to mire. Any other ideas why it doesn't work anymore? Did something change on mire?<br>
<br>I'm dying at work without my SSH tunnel connection to the internet and hoping that someone can help me figure out how to get another tunnel going. I seem to be able to connect to mire via the web-based one at https:<a href="http://ssh.hcoop.net" target="_blank">ssh.hcoop.net</a> using IE (but not Firefox, strangely), but I don't really know what commands to use to get the tunnel going, since I suck at commands and had only been using the putty preferences described here: <a href="http://www.devdaily.com/unix/edu/putty-ssh-tunnel-firefox-socks-proxy/2-configure-putty-ssh-tunnel-ssh-server.shtml" target="_blank">http://www.devdaily.com/unix/edu/putty-ssh-tunnel-firefox-socks-proxy/2-configure-putty-ssh-tunnel-ssh-server.shtml</a><br>
Is it possible to do a tunnel with the web-based SSH? And how would the browser know to use it to connect?<br><br>Thank you for any help you can provide. I really appreciate it.<br><br></blockquote><div>LOL<br>You have the same problem as we have. No problems with hcoop, but your network admins have become wiser and blocked ssh connections beyond the firewall.<br>
so your tunnel days are over. BTW are you behind websense?<br>As for not working in firefox, same issue here on linux machine. I have to use opera to use the <a href="http://ssh.hcoop.net">ssh.hcoop.net</a> web ssh login, firefox somehow does not work, dunno why.<br>
And as for tunnel, I do not think you can tunnel through web based ssh<br> <br></div></div>
