- Elbrus 2y ago> This still has the best SOCKS5 proxy abilities, even over normal Firefox Could you please elaborate a bit on what exactly do you mean by that? E.g. in Firefox one can do the following: - Connection -> SSH -> Tunnels in Putty connection options. - Add a dynamic tunnel there. - Start the session. - Then enter 127.0.0.1 and the chosen port as a SOCKS v5 proxy in Firefox options. Congratulations! A poor man's VPN is ready. An extension like FoxyProxy can be added for further convenience. What can be done in SeaMonkey on top of that?
- Gormo 2y agoSimpler even than Chromium-based browser's `--proxy-server="socks5://127.0.0.1:10000" argument. I use that all the time with SSH.
