Using your bastion server as a socks proxy

How to access web services via a jump host:
​
ssh -v -N -C -D 9090 username@bastion.example.com
​
* `-v` verbose, see any issues as they arise
* `-N` don't execute a remote command
* `-C` turn on compression
* `-D #` open a SOCKS proxy on this local port
​
Browser setup: FoxyProxy (Configure to "Use Enabled Proxies By Patterns and Order")

NOTE: It's a bad idea to route all web traffic through your company's bastion server / jump host. Only route the hosts you absolutely need to.

Or for command line stuff:

ssh -v -N -C -D 9090 mad@bastard.example.com
hpts -s 127.0.0.1:9090 -p 8989 --level info
export http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8989/
export https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8989/
