Hi secrookie, take a look at VPN solutions for linux (e.g. OpenVPN). Fast and uncomplicated to implement. But if you really want to get UDP working through SSH tunnel ... http://www.zarb.org/~gc/html/udp-in-ssh-tunneling.html Have fun. Kind regards, Arturas Zalenekas Network Security Engineer and Analyst
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
