Originally by: Shot Callista I used EVE through a ssh tunnel while i was at uni and the network was being weird, and this is how i did it:
Step 1:
Install PuTTy. PuTTy is a ssh client for windows. It has proxy features built in, which make it very useful for using as a ssh tunnel utility. PuTTy can be found at: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
Step 2:
Get yourself a shell account on a server somewhere. Ideally you'd run your own server to connect through like I do/did, but if that's not a possibility, ask around. Maybe someone you know has a server you could use to proxy through? If all fails, search the internet.
Step 3:
Run PuTTy through the command line (cmd.exe - if you don't know how to get to this, go to "Start" > "Run.." and type "cmd", then hit enter. It should pop up.) If you place PuTTy.exe in your windows, system, or system32 folder, you need only to refer to putty by name as i do, otherwise you will need to navigate to the path you put it in, or run it directly from the path.
In this example, putty is located on my hard drive at d:/stuff/putty.exe, and I am using port 8080 as my local proxy port. My username on the server i am using is Callista, and the server address is omgrawr.com
in the windows command line I type the following:
D:/stuff/putty -D 8080 -l callista omgrawr.com
I am then promted for a password, put in yoru shell account password now. PuTTy is now acting as a ssh tunnel, and running a local socks5 proxy on your machine which you can connect through.
Step 4:
Get and run SocksCap from http://www.socks.nec.com. SocksCap allows you to run any program through it, and it works by "capturing" tcp packets, and routing them through the proxy defined in your preferences. You can use it by simply dragging the eve .exe onto it, or by setting up an eve profile.
Set up your sockscap to use the proxy port you ran PuTTy with, in my case 8080.
So my socks5 proxy server is: localhost and the port is: 8080
Step 5:
Run EVE through SocksCap, and all should work! It did for me anyway! :D
I hope this helps some people, and i hope i haven't missed anything important out.
There is a simple way to do this: 1. Manage to have a SSH connection through were you are I was using Bitvise WinSSHD and Tunnelier to create a SSH tunnel. I still use Tunnelier but now I have a full linux server with OpenSSH. Bitevise website PS: WinSSHD is not free, but Tunnelier is for private use.
2. After you have a connection, go in tunnelier under the C2S fwding tab and add a new entry with these setting: Listen address: 127.0.0.1 Local Port: 26000 Remote address: 87.237.88.200 NEW CLUSTER IP Remote Port: 26000 Comment: EVE
you will need to disconnect and reconnect to enable the port fowarding.
3. Start eve and click on the dropdown for the server. select the text and type 127.0.0.1 instead of "tranquility".
et voila! if you did it right, you will have the Motd and server status. that work for me, maybe for you too. We, girl, Should be elegant. |
