-====== SSH Proxy Tunnel ======
-**General Information**
-You are somewhere that has a restrictive firewall/web proxy, but allows SSH.
-This trick allows you to tunnel your web browser's traffic through SSH to a remote system and browse the web as if you were at that remote system.
-**Checklist**
-  * Distro(s): Any
-  * Other: You already have a remote SSH server set-up that is accessible from the internet. (At home, hosted, etc)
-----
-===== From the Local Computer =====
-) Open a SSH tunnel to the remote system and specify a dynamic application listening port (Example: -D 1337):
-<code bash>
-ssh -D 1337 user@yourhome.com
-</code>
-) Edit your browser proxy settings to use the same port SSH is listening on.
