Proxy

In computer networks, a proxy server is a server (a computer system or an application program) which services the requests of its clients by forwarding requests to other servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource, available from a different server. The proxy server provides the resource by connecting to the specified server and requesting the service on behalf of the client. A proxy server may optionally alter the client's request or the server's response, and sometimes it may serve the request without contacting the specified server.

A proxy server that passes all requests and replies unmodified is usually called a gateway or sometimes tunneling proxy.

A proxy server can be placed in the user's local computer or at specific key points between the user and the destination servers or the Internet.

SSH and Tunneling

Rather than rely on public proxy servers, set up your own at home:

• Register a free hostname at No-IP to maintain a static address of your computer.
• Download and install OpenSSH (or another SSH server daemon/program) on your home computer (This is the terminal you will tunnel into/through).
• Download and install PuTTY (or another SSH-capable client) onto the client computer (The terminal you will be evading filters/banishment with).

Set up your SSH server to be open to a specific port, and forward that port if you have a router. Client-side, you will enter your no-IP hostname (or your IP address), and then the port number that you previously specified. Set your client to leave DNS resolution to the proxy server. Connect and log in. Set your browser's proxy settings to localhost:<sshport>. More info here.
