problem when setup proxy via ssh on opensuse 64-bit

I want to set up proxy via ssh on my system, which is opensuse 64bit

but it fail while it OK on CentOS 32bit.

can anyone help me?

A problem description of only three short lines is almost ever not enoughh to even give people an idea about what you are doing. :frowning:

What version of openSUSE ar you using (64-bit or 32-bit is only of minor interest mostly, but 12.1, 12.2, …). Maybe not realy interesting here, but mentioning which desktop (KDE, Gnome, …) is often useful.

Then, what did you do to get what you want and where got you stuck? An extensive description please. We can not see what you are doing., nor what the results were.

I’m sorry about that.

my system is opensuse 12.2 64bit and use gnome desktop.

when i use ssh -qTfnN -D 7070 root@remotehostip in terminal and config SOCKS Host to 127.0.0.1:7070 with chrome plugin switchysharp on chrome but it not work!!!
but the same step can work in centOS 32bit and gnome

and i also test on firefox with autoProxy, it not work also.

I think maybe i lost some library or software for proxy setting on opensuse. but what is it?

Thinks for attention and look forward to get useful messages about the problem!

That has been working fine for me with port 1080. I use “ssh -D1080 hostname”. I use that with firefox, when I need it to proxy a connection. Testing now, I see:


tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:1080          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      
tcp        0      0 ::1:1080                :::*                    LISTEN 

as part of the output from “netstat -an | grep 1080”.

I am using 12.2 64bit with KDE, though KDE or Gnome should not make a difference here.

I can visit twitter and youtube after i import the gfwlist with autoproxy in firefox

Thank you very much.

opensuse 12.2 64bit, gnome, firefox
