Doesn't running another protocol within SSH slow down the connection a notch? I ain't no networking guru but from my tech support days whenever my users run encryption on consumer grade routers they complain about slow connections. I usually explain to them that it's because encrypting your connection on wireless is a trade off between security and speed.
Don't be too harsh if I got it wrong, it's my first time and it might hurt... he he he On 6/11/07, JM Ibanez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

For example, the native git protocol is not allowed, so you'll have to tunnel that somehow. Which, since ssh is allowed, is plausible. BTW, useful ssh trick/switch: ssh -D <port> <your_server> The above creates a SOCKS 4 proxy on <port>, using <your_server> as the endpoint of the SOCKS 4 proxy. Useful when combined with the tsocks library/tool (On Ubuntu, apt-get install tsocks) -- JM Ibanez Software Architect Orange & Bronze Software Labs, Ltd. Co.
