Proxy handling

Open fullbright opened this issue 13 years ago • 4 comments

When a computer is in a network that needs a proxy, the cron job fails.

How can we add proxy handling to the application ?

I think you should be careful using ssh when behind a proxy (eg. corporate env.) -> might get one fired.

Hi,

Indeed ! but I was thinking about another environment, like when you setup a vpn and have to proxy your request through it, or just have internet through a proxy.

so...I could add a line in /etc/lipsyncd.conf for PROXY= and then if it's defined us it...it's just that...how are we going to tell it to use the PROXY for some connections (like at work) and others for other connections (like when you're at home)? to me this almost needs to be handled by a local proxy server, so you'd point at that, then it would decide how to ssh out... Thoughts? I can't think of a way I can solve both instances.

Hi,

There is a nice program called corkscrew that is able to make an SSH connexion through a proxy. Proxy details are available in the .ssh/config file.

It may be a clue.

Regards,
