As I put in my initial email, the key is the -o option "ProxyCommand"
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh_config
and search for it, there is even a similar example included.

The order is the following:
A(ssh client) - C(http proxy server) - <Internet> - B(ssh server

IP)
Now A can't access the Internet. I can only run a browser on that
machine
which includes the details from C and only then I can surf/have
access to
the Internet only on ports 80 and 443!
As a result ssh from A to B doesn't work.
If I use putty on A and define the details of C in the putty proxy
dialog
box, I can open a ssh session to B.
So the question is, how does this action of putty gets translated
into an
ssh command? Which flag should I use from the ssh command line in
order to
achieve the same result?
Thanks

Hmm, I can't grok you problem description, since it's ambiguous.
there are serveral devices here:
A. ssh client
B. ssh server
C. http(s) proxy server
D. http(s) proxy client (web browser)
I thought you mean A+D were one device, C was an interim device,
and B
was the remote device.
Do you instead mean A+C are the same device ? or that B+C are the
same
device ?
B+C on the same device seems to make the most sense, I guess. - eg.
you want the tunnel your http sessions over your ssh sessions, and
use
a proxy server (e.g. squid) on your ssh server device. in which
case a
line like this in the relevant line in your client's "~/.ssh/config"
would do it:
LocalForward 8080 127.0.0.1:8080
and then set your web browser to use a proxy at 127.0.0.1:8080

Hi Pete,
by "http proxy" you mean your proxy sitting in your machine where
you do the ssh to?
In my case I want to include the proxy which allows Internet access
sitting on the clients terminal and not in the remore machine.
Thanks

Hi,
If your just trying to do an SSH connect via a http proxy, then I do
something like this:
[p...@air] ~> cat ~/.ssh/pconn.sh
#!/bin/bash
# pconn.sh
LF=$'\015'
CMD="CONNECT $1:$2 HTTP/1.0"
echo "yyy${CMD}yyy" >&2
(echo "$CMD$LF"
echo
cat ) |
nc proxy_server_ip_address 8080 | (
while read L && [ ! -z "${L%$LF}" ]; do echo "xxx${L%$LF}xxx" >&2;
done
cat )
[p...@air] ~> cat ~/.ssh/config
#
#
Host my-server-via-proxy
Hostname my-server.com
ProxyCommand ~/.ssh/pconn.sh %h %p
TCPKeepAlive yes
ServerAliveInterval 30
#
#
and then just
[p...@air] ~> ssh my-server-via-proxy
to connect
but be aware it only works if the proxy admin has not restricted the
proxy to prevent CONNECT method to ports other than 443.

Hi Diana,
this is a 'dumb' proxy and allows http/https traffic only. So ports
80 and
443!
What I'm after is the ssh command I have to issue in order to open a
connection from 'a1' to 'a3'! If I read correctly, in case I would
have
used
putty on 'a1' I should do the following:
http://meinit.nl/using-putty-and-an-http-proxy-to-ssh-anywhere-through-firewalls
I was wondering if ssh flag '-L' is doing the same job.
By 'httptunnel' you mean the following:
http://www.jumperz.net/index.php?i=2&a=0&b=0
Thanks
Tony
httptunnel nows refers to more than one software project to tunnel
tcp
traffic via an http proxy.
take a look at SSH(1) -C
and SSH_CONFIG(5) LocalCommand
if I'm reading correctly, ssh -C requests compression of the data
and
ssh_config LocalCommand specifies a command AFTER I was able to make
the
connection!
Sorry, but I don't understand how this 2 things are related to my
problem!
The proxy is blocking me before any connection can be stablished. I
want to
include the data of that proxy in my ssh command in order to make
the
connection but how can I achieve that?
Thanks for your help
Tony
