Overview

========

As far as I know, sshuttle is the only program that solves the following
|
||
|
|
common case:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Your client machine (or router) is Linux, FreeBSD, or MacOS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You have access to a remote network via ssh.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You don't necessarily have admin access on the remote network.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The remote network has no VPN, or only stupid/complex VPN
|
||
|
|
protocols (IPsec, PPTP, etc). Or maybe you *are* the
|
||
|
|
admin and you just got frustrated with the awful state of
|
||
|
|
VPN tools.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You don't want to create an ssh port forward for every
|
||
|
|
single host/port on the remote network.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You hate openssh's port forwarding because it's randomly
|
||
|
|
slow and/or stupid.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You can't use openssh's PermitTunnel feature because
|
||
|
|
it's disabled by default on openssh servers; plus it does
|
||
|
|
TCP-over-TCP, which has terrible performance (see below).
