Hi, you can tunnel your udp connections( of course your dns queries too) through an ssh connection using netcat and OpensSSH [1] And if your application supports socks(socks5 supports udp) proxying then you can use OpenSSH's SOCKS proxy forwarding feaure (-D ).

I am researching on how to tunnel udp DNS queries. There are lots of information on how to do this for secure web browsing (ssh/squid, enable remote dns proxy in config: firefox etc..). I would like to tunnel all DNS queries from a Linux box via ssh to a remote DNS server. I looked into port forwarding 53 but was not sucessfull. As DNS queries are UDP I am not sure if it will work with openssh. My understanding is openssh tunnel only works with TCP. Any input would be appreciated. regards, secrookie
