[Tut] Using Putty for SSH Tunneling [/Tut]

[rareyush]

Ok so here i am again with yet another tutorial :). I have been asked a lot of times by many people to make a tutorial on

how to use putty. So, here it is :)

Putty is a SSH and Telnet client which i use to connect to a remote server and also for SSh tunneling and various other purposes.

In this Tutorial am going to show you how to use putty to connect to a remote server and then use it as a proxy to get anonymous on the web :D

Requirements:

Putty and credentials of a remote server with SSH Enabled.


Procedure:

Black]Step 1:

Open Putty. Goto the sessions tab on the LHS.

Here, Enter the IP address of the remote host along with the SSH port number.

In our case the port number is default ie. 22 and The remote Ip am going to connect to is : 174:xx:xx:156

It would look something like this:
